Today Nancy Pelosi suggested congress pass another $150,000,000,000 stimulus package after the election. So the Chinese will own our failing homes... and each of us (a least some of us) will get another check that will be spent in a day. This just isn't going to save the economy... as the bailout has done little so far. Borrowing created this problem... and borrowing (from ...

They apparently know what is best for us, as we don't know jack. I suppose we don't know jack and the 230 economists who signed a letter begging them not to do don't know jack either. Did the market go booms today? Nope? Does more regulation and CEO limits cure it. Nope. Socialism is closer each day. I know we had to do something to help the market.... or did we? In market sense what goes up must go down and vice ...

AIG, The auto makers, airlines, and more every day. I think nobody will bail me out if I go broke. I will just learn my lesson. What lessons are we showing other companies that will continue to make bad business decisions knowing there is no penalty for failure.
