Obviously poor people, irresponsible people and the generally retarded are going to blame banks and other "things". That's what losers do. They externalize everything and search for blame so they can get through another day of being a loser without being overwhelmed by the desire to put a gun in their mouth. Even worse, that's now the world we are creating now... a world full of underachieving narcissistic twats who feel nothing is their fault. We grade on the curve. Everyone gets a trophy just for showing up. Then when someone mentions personal accountability, everyone looks at you like you just drop kicked a baby across the room.

Must be the banks fault. Must be Republicans. Must be Bush. I mean, what else can it be? It must be something that someone or something is doing to them. How else can they explain their failures?
