It's Reported Deal Near On $700 Billion Bailout

Lawmakers are closer to a compromise on a $700 billion bailout of Wall Street. President Bush prepares to host talks at the White House on the economic crisis with Congressional Leaders and Presidential rivals John McCain and Barack Obama. I say, BITE ME! Let those thieves who created this mess get themselves out of it. What do you think? I know this is more complicated than just saying NO.

well its $2,050.00 per person. my wife, daughter and me comes to $6,150.00. devided by mortage payment of $1500.00 is four monthly payments. so for four months i will not pay the mortage and retrieve my money back off the top just like they do. no problem.

(now times that by 10 million).

1:07. Good math on your cell phone calc...hope your calculator works in a fridge box when you (and your lovely family) are foreclosed on in like 90 days during your wonderful over-caffeinated story (devided, mortage, homeles, etyc.)You guys still buy that phony American dream s'it and think other people aren't out to screw you don't you, hoss?....hint-hint; it is never about black-white-brown-it is always about green (money and jealousy)...think outside the box-life these days is nothing more than a horsetrack on raceday..believe none of what you hear/only half of what you see...and don't trust a fudger that isn't blood related (and then, only about 2/3rds of THEM-some of THEM are the absolute worst)...word.

If congress(dumb -ss democrats)
would just trade 1 year of foreign
aid , then we would have billions left over. Of course , this would be too easy and we may lose friendship with a country (that don't like us but use us). We have the money to bail us out, but put those
buttheads in jail . (no chance of that with our legal system )Oh well
get your ammo ready , it's a commin!

Joe encourage your readers to check out today's USA Today. In the financial section there is a table showing how much each elected member of Congress received from lobbyist representing the companies to be bailed out.
The amounts go from 50 million to one Congressman to a low of 600 thousand to several. It is truly disgusting! Our elected officials have been bought and paid for, and now they are delivering what they have paid to deliver.

At least Jesse James wore a mask when he robbed his victim. These elected bastards are so arrogant they look us in the face and pick our pockets at the same time.

Not That simple ! The thieves that made the mess don't give a rats ass about the whole affair, and by now most of them have taken millions of dollors in severance and bonus's which will provide them with a comfortable living for a long while.

"we hold the power, unionize the middle class."

That's close. We are not just "American consumers," we are "American citizens."

Four things that must happen if we are to succeed:

1. Vote out all incumbents
2. Stop immigration. Period. Just don't slow it down. Stop it.
3. Start making stuff here again.
4. Stop buying stuff made abroad.

Wether we like it or not, the situation is so dire, that something must be done. But I would like every Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac CEO to be jailed for life.

I think they should let the businesses who are suffering, suffer since they basically created their own fate. The market will work it self out eventually and by throwing money into it only makes it worse. Government should have nothing to do with business. I pay my mortgage every month on time along with all the rest of my bills. Its a damn shame.

I don't see them bailing out everyone(anyone) who has gone into foreclosure or whose businesses have failed. What is going to happen when(if) we no longer need big oil? Will they be the next one's to get bailed out?

I thought that the al mighty republicans wanted less government intervention.

Now the sons of bs want to take all the tax payer money......f em

And now Obama wants to come in and tax us some more. Does anyone know how he plans on implementing his policies with no money?
Health Care for all will be in the trillions, name one government agency that is efficient; even the IRS has problems.
Tax on capital gains? You can say goodbye assets in the market place.
Tax the rich even more? They will pay themselves through LLC's and move money around so they pay even less tax than they do now.

Those lenders gave away loans that they knew would never last. They have ruined peoples lives. I would think if someone did that to me they would be much safer in prison than me holding a grudge.

At this stage in my life there is no starting over after a scam like that, they had better be looking over their shoulders for a multitude of people that would probably like to get their hands on them. Myself, I didn't let them allow me over borrow. The bank the realtor, all told me "oh you can get a bigger loan if you like."

If I had listened to them I would no longer be a homeowner.

"Bailing them out" will only be a temporary fix. Printing money that we cannot back up especially when its nearly $1 Trillion is going to result in HYPER-INFLATION...

You think your electric/heat/gas bill is bad now... you just wait.

200$ a barrel anyone?
