They’re actually talking about including auto and credit card bad debt in this package. Start the Revolution!
What we need is Senators and/or Congressmen in DC with a firm grasp on the economy to draft an alternative legislation, and quickly. Maybe get folks with a firm grasp on business and the Economy (such as Steve Forbes) behind the writing.
Stalling will be just as bad as acting the wrong way. Just saying ‘this is bad’ isn’t good enough.
Yes, I agree. I say we need to control the bailout not stop it. A minor correction but 700 billion is less then two farm bills giving money to farmers not to grow something.
We dodged the bullet on full-fledged socialism, and now we're getting fascism.
Corporations now run the country.
We're being blackmailed into accepting this. READ THE BILL. It's BAT SHIT SCARY the power and money we're handing over.
Could you provide a link to the bill so that we can take your advice?
Thanks in advance.
Also, could you tell us which specific provisions in the bill (section, paragraph number) are the ones that you find most distressing?
I'll grant you that the plan could be better, but there has been an awful lot of confusion about who this money is going to.
Never in my life have I seen the country openly and nakedly pillaged by a small group of oligarchs to an extent such as this.
Uncle Sugar to the rescue. Hey, I want my kids college education paid in full by Uncle Sugar.
IT IS TIME FOR REVOLUTION!!! Anyone up for a trip to DC?
The challenge is inaction or the action of letting it crash, makes us economically vulnerable. Wars are no longer fought just on a battlefield. Major crashes (as we’ve seen from history) also bring about more major liberalization, possibly far worse than the bailout is bringing. It causes wider spread crisis that the government, of course, wants to step in and fix each one...
We need a better solution, fast, not just complaining.
Say It Again.....
It’s over.
We dodged the bullet on full-fledged socialism, and now we’re getting fascism.

This is BULLSHIT!
BTW, what did Patton "have right", specifically?

The only way you will stop this is to clean out Congress. I am not kidding. This is a done deal. Our leaders are coving their butts.

read what bill? It hasn't been crafted yet.
Since you reposted Texas_shutterbug's request that we read the bill, can you provide us with a link?
Since both of you apparently have read it and are concerned about it, please share so we can all be on the same page.

Read it and weep - then call your CONgresscritters
IF someone else could post a copy of the bill from another site, I’d be grateful.
