In Coralville, Iowa police shut down 4-year-old Abigail Krstinger's lemonade stand after it had been up for half an hour. Dustin Krustinger told reporters that his daughter was selling lemonade at 25 cents a cup during the Register's Annual Great Bicycle Race Across Iowa (or RAGBRAI), and couldn't have made more than five dollars. Police informed her that a permit would cost $400.

@FinsterFlummoxing Well, when you have lawmakers and Congressman who all dream of making a million dollar salary from Bank of America, they're not to keen on what you and I think, but what the banking execs. want.

President Andrew Jackson 1829-1837 "You are a den of vipers! I intend to rout you out, and by the Eternal God I will rout you out. If the people only understood the rank injustice of our money and banking system, there would be a revolution before morning."

@FinsterFlummoxing What about Obama? TARP was used for financial institutions. Obama abused it by bailing out his union voters (UAW) at GM and Chrysler.

To be honest, it's really not that necessary to know where the money is going. The bank bailouts are just loans. As long as the banks return the loans with the interest that is due, I don't see why they can't spend what they got as they please. If they get a second chance and screw up again, let them die. They still paid back the people's taxes with interest.

@gemcutter187 Sorry man. It just isn't that simple in my world. I certainly don't agree with any of the bailouts...especially since I have an education in banking and understand a bit about economics. But I will certainly say this. Maybe ppl have listened to the misinformation a bit too much...NEWSFLASH. The Constitution gave us a great fail-safe device here...called Congress. This "single bullet" might be fired at them, since without them, the President's recommendations are meaningless!
A pox on both their houses... dems and reps... REPUBLICRATS

The bank bailout constitutes the theft of hundreds of billions of American taxpayer dollars by Jewish banking interests, and their conspirators. The hard working American will never be able to pay this debt, making him a slave to the Zionist government of this country and their masters in Isreal. Wake up and fight for your people and your children! Join the American Nazi Party today!
