The greatest heist

Robberies occur throughout the United States everday. Tonight, a person trying to feed their family will rob a store, stealing less than one hundred dollars. The person will try to conceal his identity, and commit the crime within a given amount a time as not to get caught by authorities. In the end, the person is either killed or captured and thrown into prison for a few years.

This year, our government and banks behind closed doors, planned a strategy to save this country, which in the end cost the citizens of America everything, and them, nothing. Try to compare a robbery less than one hundred dollars to that of a robbery in the billions. Justice was done for the person who stole one hundred dollars, but those that stole in the billions, still hold either execute positions or government seats with kick-backs.

It saddens me to see the citizens of this country fight amongst ourselves for the scraps the upper class throw to us like dogs.  I know we are all trying to make it, but at whose cost? In a time where Capitalism was strong, the greatest heist in American history took place and turned our once proud America into a Socialistic society.  But that is another conversation.

So, how do we handle this situation. My suggestion to this dilemma would be to vote out every longstanding congressman. Get new blood into those chairs. Furthermore, submit a bill during the next session that will only allow a person to hold a seat in Congress for three terms, and cannot run after their third term. In addition, include a bill that would require banks to pay back all funds loaned out by the American Government. If we end government corruption, we end the heist from continuing.
