The Economic Apocalypse

The end of our world is near, Mexicans are sending money to their unemployed relatives in the U.S. Mexicans were struggling before the recession even hit and yet they are doing better than some of us in one of the most prosperous nations in the world. This is completely unbelievable. How did we let the economy get so bad. Wait I remember no one did anything to prevent the apocalypse; they figured someone else could fix it.

Then came Obama, who was left to clean up the mess. Sure things have gotten better for the banks that were once on the boarder between life and death, but what about us the ailing, unemployed, uninsured citizens. Do we not deserve a break? Don't we deserve our jobs and homes back? We might have made bad financial decisions in the past, but we have learned from them. 

But in all the gloominess that surrounds us there is some bright news for some of us. Republicans will no longer need to worry about what to do with illegal immigrants in this country because if the economy doesn't shape up soon many will return to their home countries.

  1. Does that mean that if the economy continues to slump, certain right-wingers will stop complaining about immigration? Because that's a bargain I'd almost be willing to make.
