What do the candidates mean, especially McCain, when they say our economy is strong?
Just about every day there is news of some corporation or other being 'bailed out' by the government. Or maybe just going belly up and filing bankruptcy. And these are not your mom-and-pop businesses, they are some of the biggest corporations in American history!
I can't help wondering just exactly what it is going to take to wake up the American People , and make them DEMAND that there be accountability for these huge defaults. It is obscene that, while FNMA and FreddieMac have failed, their CEOs and other head honchos are collecting HUGE "Golden Parachutes". Of course, making those folks give back the money they obviously have NOT earned is just a drop in the bucket compared to the huge losses the corporations have endured, but it is a start!
IMHO, those in charge at FNMA, FreddieMac, Lehman Brothers, Merril Lynch, WaMu, Countrywide etc., should all be charged with fraud and mismanagement of funds, and sent to jail, and have all their assets (those we could find!) stripped.
The American People need to stand up and DEMAND that no one profit when a corporation goes down the tube.
Can't you see those executives laughing all the way to their (offshore) bank?

It is possible to just disappear?
In this day and age you would think it would be impossible to just disappear. After all, we are constantly told how we are in data bases, how our information is known by anyone who wants to find it, and other scary things that make us feel like we are in a goldfish bowl.
Well, maybe it is that way now but in 1969 when my aunt died and left behind 5 sons, it must not have been that way, because those sons have vanished as surely as if they were spirited away by a magician.
My aunt's name was Sandy and at her death she was (we think) married to a man named Al Marsh. They lived in the Virginia Beach area.
Her obituary names her survivors. Sons Randy Hurst, Michael Hurst and Kevin Hurst (by a previous marriage) were listed, as well as sons David and Richard Marsh. The obituary indicated that Randy Hurst was married and lived in Norfolk VA. ( I believe he was married to Myrna Neff, his high school sweetheart when they attended Towson HS in Baltimore County, MD). Michael Hurst also lives in Norfolk.
Kevin Hurst lived in Virginia Beach and was about 16 years old. We believe that perhaps David and Richard were twiins, and about 4 or 5 years old at the time of my aunt's death.
I have learned that after my aunt died her husband, Al Marsh, took Kevin Hurst (his step-son) and the two younger boys and moved to the Baltimore area, perhaps to either White Marsh or Perry Hall.
And that is the point at which everyone seems to have disappeared. Since that time no one has ever seen Randy Hurst and his family, Michael Hurst or either of the two younger boys, Richard and David Marsh.
Kevin Hurst has been located.
If anyone knows the whereabouts of Randy (Philip Randall) (and Myrna) Hurst and their daughter, Michael Brandon Hurst, Richard Marsh or David Marsh I would like to contact them.
We believe the two youngest boys would not be about 40 years of age. We believe that Randy Hurst was born in about 1847-48 and that Michael Brandon Hurst was born in about 1950.
