For the 3rd or 4th time, I am not an economist. I don't know if there was an alternative answer. All I know is that there are smaller companies that cannot make their payrolls because of the failure of these bigger, dishonest entities. This failure is bigger than just Lehman, Fannie & Freddie and AIG. There are a whole host of others that they are taking down with them.
“You misunderstand. Smaller companies invested money with these rigged, failed companies. It isn’t just the biggies going down. Smaller companies who thought their investments safe also lost their capital. They believed the cooked books”
I get it. You have my sympathies, but not my willingess to float any small company that lost everything.
If you have a product or service to sell, declare bankruptcy and sell it again. Maybe you were an innocent victim, but you are screwed just the same. Lesson: Don’t trust your money to just anyone.
Good luck
