“Shine a light”

`The best disinfectant is sunshine.’ Louis Brandeis

The bi-partisan bail-out shills may keep saying that the reason for their break-neck, imprudent pace is—recall that they were working (and on the weekend!) and wanted something to give to Congress a week ago today, on Monday, the start of Autumn, 9/22—that Wall Street is about to have a collective nervous breakdown, but the real reason could be something else.
Why does this mess have to be passed `yesterday’? Could it be that if Main Street is allowed to look at the bill closely and discuss it we might stop reading and talking and . . . keep your powder dry!

Your post says it all for moi!

ExACTLY WHAT WE NEED IS A LIGHT SHINED ON THIS WHOLE MESS!

If we go FAST ENOUGH, than very bad people escape the responsibility they have for this financial mess.

We will survive a meltdown.

We will.

But we will never survive the socialism that comes with such an intrusion into the marketplace by government.

When a BUSINESS fails.....it FAILS!

Period.

When congress people FAIL to perform oversight on two HUGE government designed projects like FANNIE MAE and FREDDIE MAC...and they FAIL and start this domino effect...then the CONGRESS people RESPONSIBLE FOR OVERSIGHT need to be NAMED and IMPEACHED. PERIOD. Their retirements taken and their lights turned off.

Yes.

It seems there is a rush to "close doors," so the voters cannot glimpse the ugliness of the "un-affordable housing" scandal.
