Bucco, Taxpayers will foot the bill for this fiasco with or without the bailout.
The bloodletting on Wall Street yesterday was chilling. Think about all those pension funds that states guarantee. If a fund loses half it's value, taxpayers have to make up the difference.
This is an unprecedented assault on our Treasury and IMHO, the security of our nation. Where will it end? The powers that Paulsen and Co would have been given with this bailout would have been.. a license to steal.
I am furious. Americans should all be furious. We should be demonstrating in the streets across America.
I was terrified about what would happen without the bailout. I'm not terrifed now. Blood has spilled on Wall Street. None of us know everything that was in the bailout bill. That's scary. I no longer trust anyone running this country.
I think for the most part they are charlatans and whores.
OK Tony, before you go banning me for profanity, if the word is good enough for a fifty year old Webster's Dictionary, it should be good enough to use here..and it certainly fits.
