when I fall down, I feel the pain, and I learn the lesson.

when a bunch of greedy *********s fall down on wall street, and then my grocery bill and gas bill go up, as well as my general cost of living, I am now feeling some greedy *********'s pain.

someone i didn't vote for decides to try to make his daddy happy and bomb some foreign country. other middle eastern countries sympathize and raise oil prices. wall street uses the scare tactic of war to drum up gas prices. i would never have choses this path, i'm forced into it, and now i pay the economic price.

this is not an effective pain comparison, sorry.

i didn't make this mess, now i suffer. i'll gladly suffer due to my own poor choices, but this system is set up so that i take the fall and the greedy CEO's keep on truckin'. didn't want a bailout either, now i suffer.

this "economic pain" ownership theory is poor.
