Florida Man Wants A Bailout

A Florida homeowner wants a bailout like the “big boys” are all currently getting. He’s been getting plenty of attention since he added a “Where’s our bailout?” sign to the roof of his house.

Ken Strzepka, 41, put the sign up the day he first learned about the $700 billion bailout of the financial sector. He says he took exception to President George W. Bush calling homeowners “irresponsible.”

“How dare he say that Americans are irresponsible when the people guarding the hen house are the most irresponsible, and they got their money first? said Strzepka, who owns an audio/video installation and energy efficient home upgrade business that he said is currently not doing any business due to the nation’s economic woes.”

“Homeowners still haven’t been helped,” he said

His house, and in particular his roof, has been getting plenty of attention lately since the bailout is so unpopular with most of the public.
