We are in a double dip recession, worst since the GREAT DEPRESSION. Please explain to me how all the PRO FOOTBALL, BASKETBALL, GOLF AND BASEBALL PLAYERS STILL HAVE MULTI-MILLION CONTRACTS?? I DO NOT UNDERSTAND IT. I DID HEAR THAT BANK OF AMERICA WAS LOANING MONEY OUT TO PAY FOR EITHER A PRO FOOTBALL OR BASKETBALL PLAYERS SALARY FOR THE YEAR, WHICH ARE IN THE MULTI-MILLIONS. When I hear how somebody on a PRO SPORTS TEAM, IS GETTING MULTI-MILLION SALARIES TO PLAY, HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE WITH A DOUBLE DIP RECESSION. |
