Money Talks

Johnny Cash, Ray Charles, Dom DeLuise, Marilyn Monroe, Bill Clinton, Lash LaRue, James Brown, Frank Sinatra, Mike Tyson, Ho Chi Minh, Bobby Sox, Phil Donahue, Hubert Humphrey, Jean-Paul Sartre, Al Pacino, Bob Seger, Chuck Roast, Jeffrey Dalmer, Lady Gaga---these are some of the names with which I've signed my credit-card purchases at various stores and restaurants. Not a single clerk or waitress had the least concern about my signature nor for financial rules, not unlike the Wall Street traders who have no concern for financial regulations of their own actions. God help our economy and our money.
