INVESTORS WHO HAVE MAJOR LOSSES SHOULD RECIEVE TAX RELIEF FOR 2008.

Mr. Icahn,

Keep up the much needed Service to Duty to your Country and Fellow American Citizens during a much turbulent time in our history. It seems as though your voice is the voice of Reason and Servitude to Country. The vision of our forefathers for our Great Country is still the guiding light for us to constitute for Greater Service to Nation.

The tendency of a national bank is to increase public and private credit. The former gives power to the state, for the protection of its rights and interests: and the latter facilitates and extends the operations of commerce among individuals. Industry is increased, commodities are multiplied, agriculture and manufacturers flourish: and herein consists the true wealth and prosperity of a state.

Alexander Hamilton, Report on Manufactures, 1790

John Adams Quote

"Government is instituted for the common good; for the protection, safety, prosperity, and happiness of the people; and not for profit, honor, or private interest of any one man, family, or class of men; therefore, the people alone have an incontestable, unalienable, and indefeasible right to institute government; and to reform, alter, or totally change the same, when their protection, safety, prosperity, and happiness require it."

Drill Baby Drill, Greed Baby Greed; How about Country Baby Country....I just want to provide for my family, it's future prosperity working 9-5 on a foundation built on the Vision of my Forefathers! (Fair/Secured Playing Field)

Everyday we see or read that the Boogey Man is still out there...Folding Chair Robber Barons.

God Bless America and my Fellow Individual Investors!
