Financial Shakeup this weekend

[ccm911]

I think that a lot of folks are really afraid to exercise the hard won freedom of speech that was earned for us by our forefathers.  I mean, we fought World War Two to get rid of tyranny.  And we did it along side our European friends.  But it seems that the Europeans are less hesitant to speak their minds than the Americans.

And maybe the lack of input could be related to the same malaise that has brought us this past eight years of expense and misery? 

A friend of mine is a really big talker.  But he seems afraid to put himself out there on forums such as these.  I think he is afraid to be judged.  It may have something to do with self confidence.  But the only way to build confidence is to get out there and get slapped around a bit.

I guess we all can't be as well adjusted as the folks in this thread are(sarcasm).
