wow, not only will they solve a galloping economic meltdown by dishing out tons of cash, but they are also increasing more than ever the incentives for poorer countries...

Yay, let's print up more Monopoly money and keep this idiotic game going!

And you know where we got the money from? Taxing those fat cats on Atlantic Ave, Baltic Ave and the Boardwalk! We even passed Go and collected $200 though we got a go to jail card!
