Money Management Or Lack Thereof

WHAT?!?!?!?!

How is that the government can just throw money hither and yon? And I am expected to pay for their indulgences?

It's great for first-time homebuyers, but what about those who aren't sitting around with their hands out begging the government for money? What about those hard-working American families who pay their mortgage on time, don't have bills in arrears, are frugal and wise with their money, and CAN FOLLOW a budget? Do we get a "You've Been So Good With Your Money We Think You Should Be Rewarded" tax break? Nope.

Sigh. I am so glad that God's economy is not subject to our economy. And that He rewards those who are faithful stewards! But it is soooo annoying to me that banks that have been foolish are given a bailout, companies that should go under are given a life preserver worth millions of dollars and now first time homebuyers are given a credit that I am going to have to end up paying for eventually. I wish we could elect officials that know how to manage money wisely.

Okay, I am done venting.
