OK, everybody keep up with me. Stores are decorated for Christmas right after Halloween. The almighty dollar!

Thanksgiving is ignored, with stores open on Thanksgiving. The almighty dollar!

Bags of potato chips bags are half full of air. The almighty dollar!

Capitol Hill senate and congressmen take us to the edge of the fiscal cliff. The almighty dollar!

Grocery stores' prices are still too high for a economy in recession. The almighty dollar!

Did you get my meaning?
