Bailout questions
Bailout questions
September 29th - 8:51 pm

What I'm wondering is what's the rush with this bailout? Why is this the only option being considered? 

Fun Fact:

$101 million has been contributed to both political parties from the finance industry in the 2008 election. 56% of it went to Democrats. So basically, it's almost equal on both sides.

Paulson, Bernanke, Dodd...How are these guys still in charge? Isn't that like letting the wolf into the henhouse?

 

There is something fundamentally wrong with this situation. I'm so angry, I had a hard time sleeping last night!

Check out this idea, I'm no economist but I like the way it sounds:

It is being rushed becase the American public needs a hero. We like heros, and each one of the canidates would like to be that person.

These vampires finally have the nerve to go for the Jugular. the one thing that they (politicos and finance Kings) agree on is the need for a direct tap into the treasury of the USA for the use of the greediest people in the history of the world.
They used to shoot a little lower "private wall street accounts for social security", or "forget guaranteed fixed benefit pensions for people outside government, give em 401K's and send 'em into the market without a clue, we will take it (them) from there".

Never does anyone propose repeal of the legislation that got us into this mess!

We could potentially come to the consensus of a wrong idea.
