Not pretending to have a clue though.
Yes please don't pretend, as you don't by any means have a clue. The Govt has gotten the whole place intot the mess its in, so YES let the people vote---the "average" person as you call them. What arrogance! The Govt went along with the banks' bad bets, and now the "average" person should bail them out? You creep ME out, buddy. Please study a few years about how the IMF and central banks work together with offshore banks and hedge-funds to create the mess we are all in. Also learn a bit about magnanimity and poise, seeing as you are rudely lacking both of those virtues.
