bail out
The Bail Out Bill
By: Drew
I am here to say that I believe that the Bail out Bill is wrong and should be abolished. I think it is wrong because why should we, average Americans, have to pay for large Companies’ foolish mistakes. To me it doesn’t seem right, and here’s why.
The first thing I don’t like about it is that it takes billions of dollars of government money to pay for the companies to keep running. Where does the government get their money? From us. If those companies would tighten their belt a little, and not hand out giant pay checks to their managers and C.E.O's they wouldn't be in such a tight spot. If I was president it would never have passed; if they are in dept, and our country is in dept where is our national dept going to do if we bail them out, and give them billions of dollars? Drop! Drop like a Two Ton Brick! Kaboom! The way I see it is we don’t need to go into another couple billion dollars in the hole. We are already 11 trillion in dept.
Another horrible thing about it is that once you bail out one company it will have an effect on all the other large industries in the U.S. they will all want a bail outs also. Why wouldn't they want a bail out? It’s free money. It’s bigger pay check for them and bigger taxes for us.
The Bail Out may be good for something like saving the large companies, but they wouldn’t be in trouble if the weren’t giving out $40,000 pay checks every month to every top person in the company. That’s a small part of their problem.
If the Bail out had been approved during a different time it might have been fine, but right now we are in an economic crisis. Really there couldn’t have been a worse time to make it effective. But the bail out was a horrible idea and it still is.
During this money crisis we all have had to manage our spending. Why shouldn’t they have to, and by they I mean every company applying for the Bail Out? Did anybody notice that as soon as the Bail out was passed every large company applied for it? If I could see the owners of them companies I would say, “You are sad and pathetic! Do you really think you need this? Cut back your salaries a bit. I personally think you could live without a few private jets.”
If you ask me I think they should get abolish of the Bail out Bill. I will stand by this decision strongly, and it will not change, or waver.

The Roach Ponytail
This is a true story of my sister and my family. It is written right after we have decorated our tree.
“Look at this bug! It’s huge!” said Dad.
“Oh my gosh! What is that!” screamed Maddy.
“It’s a bug.”
“Get it! Squash it.”
“Ok.”
“No don’t kill it I want to take it to Science” decided Maddy, “She is going to love this bug!”
As Maddy runs out to get a jar Dad goes, “It’s not a bug it’s a ponytail but don’t tell her.”
“I got a jar! Now catch it.”
“No. You want it you catch it.”
“Drew will you get it for me?”
“No I’d kill it. You get it.”
As Maddy goes to grab the bug Drew takes out a video camera and takes a video. Dad walks back out of the kitchen.
“Just sneak up on it its dead.”
“Why do I need to sneak if it’s dead?”
Maddy goes and is got a jar on one side and is sneaking up on it with a lid in the other hand and is closing in on it. When Brock runs in and says, “Hey isn’t that a ponytail?”
“That’s not funny. You guys are mean!”
“Look at this bug! It’s huge!” said Dad.
“Oh my gosh! What is that!” screamed Maddy.

Happy Thanksgiving
What I am thankful for this Thanksgiving. What I am thankful for is that I will be able to spend this Thanksgiving with my family. One of my favorite holidays is Thanksgiving, because I love to spend the holiday with my family. I love to spend the day with them and watch movies, and eat, and, play cards, and eat, and go sledding, and eat. I'm thankful for my family because I love to have someone who I can always talk to, and so I always have someone to support me in whatever I do.
I am thankful that my family and friends have good health. I am happy my friends have good health because it’s no fun to see your friend in the hospital. If I didn't have my friends to talk to I don't know what I would do.
I am thankful that we have this holiday, because if we didn't celebrate it we wouldn't have an excuse to lie around and eat all day.
I am also thankful that I was so blessed by God to be born into a loving family. Another thing I am thankful for is that if I can't turn to anyone I can still turn to God for help.
That is what I am thankful for this year.
