Adversaries of the Recession Movement part 2

Rob Blagojevich


When we think of government corruption we have a new sheriff in town, Governor of Illinois, Rob Blagojevich was charged with selling the nomination for the javascript:void(0)senate seat vacated by Barrack Obama. The indictment included federal bribery and conspiracy charges.

“The tapes reveal that Governor Blagojevich wanted a number of things in exchange for making the appointment to the Senate seat -- an appointment as Secretary of Health and Human Services or an ambassadorship, an appointment to a private foundation, a higher paying job for his wife, or campaign contributions. At one point he proposed a three-way deal: That a cushy union job would be given to him at a higher rate of pay where he could make money. In exchange, he thought that the union might get benefits from the president-elect and therefore the president-elect might get the candidate of his choice.”

How does this relate to the pro recession movement? Blagojevich should have gone for the recession burger rather than the prosperity Kobe beef filet mignon steak. Blagojevich asked for too much too much in return during these so called “Economic crisis.” Couldn’t he ask for something mundane like admin to the EPA or director of drug control and policies? Or a discount rate on campaign contributions during the recession. If you are willing to take a bribe, during a recession maybe start with a lowball offer. Even better thought, Blagojevich could have put up the nomination for the senate seat up on Craigslist. Atleast then let the free market decide on the price.
