None of us will give ANY sort of interview for at least a week. AND we will push, shove and use a stick if we must, to get those nine banks to start really freeing up credit! And get those LIBOR rates down. Even if you have to pay some bribes to the Europeans!!!”

That sounds like something out of Lenin's playbook and it won't work. As Ron Paul, the only guy saw this coming, warned repeateldy we need to let the malinvestments collapse and a have a quick readjustment. Pouring more money into this sinkhole will only delay the recovery. There ain't no such thing as a free lunch no matter how many guns the government points at people. Unfortunately, this is something that Bush/McBama just don't understand.

Pouring more money into this sinkhole will only delay the recovery.

Hey, for at least a few on this thread...
You're preaching to the choir!

I'm still reeling from the insider revelation that Paulson FORCED
the government money on some of the nine banking entities.

All this "infusion" just totally perverts the markets.
And contributes to the disasterous "too big to fail" belief.
