Ah well, there goes another $1000,000,000,000 of taxpayers money, this time on spending buying up some of the banksters toxic assets (such as financing the type of deals that allowed the Eskimos to move their Igloos to the Sahara then spreading the risk of these mortgage backed AAA rated securities onto the world economy with the Wall street and City of London Masters of the Universe walking away with their multimillion dollar bonuses and pension schemes) on top of another $1200,000,000,000 in quantive easing on top of another $850,000,000,000 stimulus package which was piled on top of the original $700,000,000,000 bank bailout or was it $750,000,000,000 (the memory is getting a little fuzzy). Hmm what's worse than trickle down economics, thats right trickle up economics. whistle They seem to be spending money like there's no tommorow, no wait could there be no.......

And I have in the last six months ensured that I have enough new footware and clothing to last for the next 5+ years (spent around £2000 on heavily discounted items 50-70% off the RRP) and household cleaning and chemical materials and personal toiletries for 18-24 months.
