I wish this woman had power to do more than ask question and publish reports. I wish she had the power to stab Geithner. I wish she ran Treasury.

Ms. Warren, I'm sure you'll find the reason why Mr Paulson undervalued assets by looking closely at Goldman Sachs profits.

...how about that this was a plan going back to Bush, who pushed this through overnight, to take money form the "middle class" and reditribute it to the rich fat cat banksters.

Ms. Warren, what is it that you propose we do to speak up? When overwhelming numbers of Americans called their congressional leaders and vehemently rejected the proposed bailouts, we were ignored. When millions gathered in Washington to protest the war BEFORE it happened, we were ignored. If we go now to shout loudly in front of Congress, i have a feeling we will again be ignored. I think the only way we're going to get anywhere is to starve the financial institutions of our money.

Why didn't the government just charge the big banks 30% interest on the TARP loans right off the bat - like the interest rates that the banks are passing on to the taxpayers in thanks for our help saving their sorry asses and their record bonuses? Now those scum sucking bottom feeders want to weasel out of the warrants and make sure the taxpayers get screwed YET AGAIN.
