Divided We Fail is proud to announce our Facebook and MySpace winners of the Champ Summer Concert Ticket Contest.

(Drumroll please...)

Congratulations to Laura Rothenberg on Facebook and LexiLETDOWN on MySpace! Laura is from Richmond, VA and attends the University of Virginia. Lexi is from Indiana and will be starting her senior year in high school this Fall. Both winners are the proud recipients of up to $1000 in concert tickets for themselves and 3 friends each, to the concert of their choice. The contest required that each contestant recruit as many friends as possible to the DWF Facebook Fan Page or MySpace page, in order to see what network could grow the fastest.

Many thanks go out to both Laura and Lexi for recruiting their friends to join Divided We Fail! As for the winning network, it looks like Facebook has the edge over MySpace.

Just because the contest is over, don't let that stop you. Follow in Laura and Lexi's footsteps and tell your personal networks what DWF is all about.

Investors are not innocent of this problem. Why did they
buy their home at too HIGH of price? The market adjusts
when the prices of homes are inflated to too high of price.

Why reward Wall Street, when they were the ones that were
part of inflating the price of homes. They are just trying
to borrow more of our taxpayers money to save their company.

Let's make sure we get our money back plus a reasonable
amount of return to grow our country. They should not be
rewarded for putting us in this bind.

Why bailout Wall Street with such a huge price tag ($700 B), which adds to the deficit. What about pulling the troops out of Iraq and saving $12 million a week? I have heard noone speak to those funds. Also, why does Wall Street play to the actions of Congress, is that to force Congress into signing a bill that would give them more money to pocket?

I hate to play the pessimist, but I do not trust the Bush Administration and his "merry band of men". I believe this is just a tactic to get more of "Main Street's" money; unfortunately all of this has an adverse impact on the medium to low income public.
