    Re: Bailout Bill

    WE all agree that the Pols we elect are guilty regardless of party affiliation but I think it is important to learn whose business philosophy failed. If it was the Dems and their wealth redistribution ideas of giving money out to underserving people then lets learn from that. If it was the GOP and their inability to stand up and fight the evil left and their greedy selfserving ideas then lets learn from that. LOL I just want to be fair and balanced.

    Hey Gov. Arnold S. from Cali wants the feds to help them now wonder when the rest of the states will start asking for money to help run their economy. I wonder if the states that harbor illegals will be asking for money first? I say yep.

    ILLEGALS AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. We here in Ky are harboring several, enough to have 5 Mexican restaraunts in Hartford and Beaver Dam, my county is overrun with them, I belive that they are part of our economy problems also, they pay NO TAXES, none and send a lot of their CASH back to whever they came from. What happened to SECURITY, as a lot of these are from countrys that HATE US, Venesula, and some other TERROSIT countrys in South and central America. DJD what are we to do, how do we take back OUR country from the RICH, POWERFUL & GREEDY and the Illegals?????????????????? We the American citizen has had ENOUGH they have raped us, stole from us, lied to us, denied us. The Legal Tax paying working middle class citizen has been discriminated against long enough, we have no rights no more as long as we work and pay taxes so the rich get breaks and the crimanils get to take it easy. I saw an article about endangered species, they failed to add the middle class citizen to the list as endangered and threatened.

    I just read an article the other that was printed in the New York Times from Sept of 99 where the Clinton administration was pressuring Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae to issue home loans to individuals of minorities that could not afford them. The idea that under a robust economy that if push come to shove they would just sell or lender would assume debt and sell. Several well known advisors told them it would be a huge mistake during a down turn in economy but the powers that be ignored them. In other words Don, you are right but now what do we do, it's a real cluster....! At this point I am now past who's fault it is and and wondering what in the heck we are gonna do to right the ship.

    I don't view it as much of a minority issue. The biggest blame lies with these companies who knew they were getting themselves in trouble. We should have let them pay the consequences and allowed companies who want to do things the right way come in and take over. We basically just enabled them to do it all over again in a few years and our tax money will go to waste bailing them out again.

    Re: Bailout Bill

    This is all I have to say on this bailout bill:

    You can't fix stupid.

    You won't fix greed

    ALL POLITICIANS ARE CROOKED

    The heck with all of the idiots that bought a house they couldn't afford. The bankers that made the loan, and Freddie and Fannie that were FORCED to cover these insane loans.

    Brothers, the "wealth" is surely now being redistributed as I sit in my paid off house, looking at my paid off trucks and boat,etc.

    The only "bailout" I have is a coffee can in my boat!!

    Did you all see where the execs from AIG went on a spa trip and spent $440K following the bailout? That's EXACTLY why we shouldn't be using our tax dollars to support the bad habits of bad businesses. If we hadn't bailed them out, they would have failed and perhaps a business that wanted to do things the right way would have taken their place.

    Yes Michael I did and it made me so mad that I got dizzy and almost passed out. This country now is so corrupt it can't be fixed. I think all present people in office should be fired and all new people hired. Give those people one year and if there isn't marked improvement, fire all those peeps and repeat until they meet American approval. When I think of my tax dollars paying for some coperate big wig to have a half million dollar spending spree on my money it makes me want to go O.J. It's time for a revolution in this country and I'm dead serious. We the people for the people are coming to get your theiving butt and THROW YOU OUT OF OFFICE PERMANENTLY!

    AMEN MARK PREACH ON BRO......... That AIG thing has made me sick also, the nerve of them it shows that they have no respect for their fellow man, none what so ever. Mine and your tax dollars sent them on vacation but I cannot afford to go on one myself. They should be tared and feathered and rode out on a rail. " so you say you want a revolution" Beatles.

    The only possible solution I can see is to vote for candidates who want to CUT taxes. I don't mean just token cuts, but big-time cuts that will matter.

    The way I look at it, if the government doesn't have the money, it can't waste it.

    The problem there is you are thinking like a normal person. We can't spend what we don't have. We can borrow, but only so much.

    The government can print,spend, and borrow as much money as it wants to. Hence the debt the U.S.A. now owes.
