I wrote to my representative to not pass such idiotic bill. Why should taxpayers purchase 700bil. worth of toxic assets? The shareholders and creditors must be forced to contribute to such an increadible recapitalation. To bail them out would be a case of privatizing the gains while socializing the losses. peace. This happened in mex. and some scandinavian countries and there are much better and frugal ways to solve the problem. Besides HAPPY DAYS can not go on for ever for those greedy fatcats!

GO CAPITALISM!

Too big to fail? How about too big to bail?

Bankruptcy > Bailout

Let freedom in market economics reign!

Private companies that received bail out loans from the government should all implement a salary cap of $400,000.00. In other words, they should not pay their employees anything above $400,000.00. Untill, that it is, they decide to pay the tax payers back with interest. The restructuring of their salaries will allow for more profitability on their part and more accountability on ours. 
