Tom Friedman:

What book will our kids write about us?

"The Greediest Generation?"

"The Complacent Generation?"

Or maybe: "The Subprime Generation: How My Parents Bailed Themselves Out for Their Excesses by Charging It All on My Visa Card."

Our kids should be so much more radical than they are today.

We should be talking about "bail," not "bailouts."

Peter Schiff:

We need a serious recession in this country, and the government needs to get out of the way, and let it happen.

Tom Friedman, in 2005:

Are Americans suffering from an undue sense of entitlement?

Somebody said to me the other day that the entitlement we need to get rid of is our sense of entitlement.

Imagine an austerity rebellion.
