The name is Margaret
lol and the do failed -7000 points, biggest lose in history.

FAIL.
and the bailout would have back fired anyway, we lost 1.2 trillion, and they were gonna agive 700b which would have gotten us in more debt, and the market would crash anyway.

Now, I could be wrong, but I'm not. Businesses do better when people buy a lot.

Anyone else have thoughts on the proposed bailout plan? I mean, besides it's the biggest steaming pile of shit I have ever seen? I have in no way been convinced that giving them $700B will a) help the economy in it's current state and b) be worth it.

I read/hear about the disastrous consequences of not doing this. I have also read expert opinions on this. If we are in as dire a situation as the Bush administration would have us believe - $700B "ain't goin do shit". (Ok, they didn't actually say it like that - but wouldn't it be funny if they did)

I fail to see how giving someone who has worked on Wall St. for many years at the highest echelons should be given any oversight ability in this matter. Conflict of interest just screams out at me. And as bad as the bill is, and as likely as it is to pass... I'm for once glad that some are questioning at least some aspects about it - including oversight, salary caps and whatnot. Though, by the time it's all done with it will still be crap.

What would I want done?

First show me all the options. To say that giving the Bush administration $700B RIGHT NOW is the ONLY option should tell everyone that they are completely filled with bullshit. That alone loses loads of credibility with the fed. What would happen if we don't bail them out? And I don't mean worse case scenario. Basically, how much would it cost me if a couple of the banks do go under. It might be less than the $10k+ I have to pay for the current plan.

Second: I would like to see this not happen. I understand throwing government at it won't necc. help the matter, but that doesn't mean it can't take actions. One way is similar to anti-trust laws that we currently have. Companies should not be allowed to grow so massive that they're possible downfall can destroy the global economy, in my opinion. Lot of problems can stem from that, but I'm not a lawmaker or lawyer or anything, so I'm not going to worry about it.

And that's my rant for now.

i agree with this. the whole reason why we are in this mess is because of lack of reinforcement of regulations. companies got too greedy and took risks to gain big dollars quick, which they should not have done. the government needs to put more restrictions so they can't do these risky moves.

as for what i would do to solve this problem, i have no idea. i'm glad i'm not president; i don't know why anyone would want the job, honestly.

edit: nick, of course our government is faith-based, the whole country itself was founded as a christian nation. it should stay that way too.

I can only make so many reinforcements man. Making them for the whole government would just take way too long.
