Bankers and financists showed off corporate planes, executive this & that, the winner`s pose..they`ve proven to be what we all thought under the table..a bunch of lazy especulators that make money with little or no effort. Couriously earnings are private but losses are public ,they`ve simply destroyed a fairly good system like capitalism. Jail for these people & new regulations.

Regulate the crap of shell banks-invention like Cayman where they triangle their corruption

that`s the key.

I WANT A JOB FOR 34 MILLION AND THEN BE ABLE TO RUN A COMPANY INTO THE GROUND TO THE TUNE OF $600 BILLION. Just proves that these highly educated people with big incomes do nothing but shoot craps all day as we foot the bill.

This has nothing to do with Bush- It has everything to do with what happened September 11 01. If Clinton was still in the hot seat he would be hated by many as well.

Guess what- things are going to get worse.

But who supplied the bridge to make an "ownership society" possible?

Granted, the free market was a major selling point of his campaign, but in the end the FED makes the final decsion on captial availibillity and wealth.

Bush had no contol over Greenspan and his actions...

The Fed has been printing money to bail out failing financial institutions. Watch out, because a hyperinflation is coming. Soon, the US dollar will come unravel, and you will be paying $100, $1000, $10000, and more and more for a loaf of bread and a bag of rice -- because the U.S. dollar will crash and be worth next to nothing because the Fed has overprinted too much money.

Actually, Bush's policy has everything to do with it. Bush had been pushing for the so-called "ownership society", in which the idiot claimed that every American own own their own home, property and stock. In pursue of his ownership society, loans and credit had been made cheap. That had been the source of our current troubles.
