We at Info Ink already give a “Person of the Year” award and an Anal-Ocity of the Year award, the “Assie” award and this year we will start a new tradition and that is to award the “Loser of the Year”…….the award will be the thing that was the biggest loser of the past year, whether it is prestige or money or the biggest douche bag or whatever….it will be the largest loss…..
We were torn between oh so many……there is Tiger….then there was Madoff’s victims and then it was Chicago’s Olympic bid and on and on…there were many losers in 2009….after lots of thought and deliberation we have made our decision…….(insert drum roll here)…….
Here is the winner……..this loser has lost it all job, money, home, prestige, clout and could still lose even more…..
Info ink’s “Loser of the Year” is…….the AMERICAN TAXPAYER!
No other has lost as much as the taxpayer in this last year…they have been losing ground as the most important person in the country for years and in this last year they the tax payer or the Middle Class has lost just about everything…..these people voted en masse for the Obama promise of change….they are now losing all hope of ever seeing any change, no matter who promises it……
The loss has become uncountable and there is the main reason the the Loser of the Year is the AMERICAN TAXPAYER……..
Hah! Don’t be so provincial! The British taxpayer is probably even a bigger loser – the politicians aren’t even pretending the recession is turning the corner there and I reckon Gordon Brown has thrown pretty well as much money at UK banking as the Bush and Obama have at American ones.
The years biggest loser is the taxpayer everywhere!
We’ve been screwed, buster and what are we able to do about it? Sweet FA!
Oh crap! My bad…….I was not thinking globally…..sorry…and you are right
