If there's a fear that CITICORP may go under, then there's a lot of countries which should be interested, and not just the US. A bailout of Citicorp is D U M B, and just is the political elitists protecting the CITICORP elitists who make campaign contributions.
Steve,

Oh My! You mean those lobbyists are still there in DC sloppin' those hogs? (she said sarcastically)

In Orwell's Animal Farm, at the end of the book, the farmer was thrown out of his home and the hogs were in the house. Well now, here we are. The hogs are in the House and in the Senate.

I gotta get out of here. I am starting to sound like some kind of English major. I think I will go to the bank, take out all of my money, and go spend it. WTH, huh!
