Why do people who worked hard have to pay for the ones who overspent, and the crooks on wall street.

Let''s start with the loss in property value. Wait until you need to refinance. The price is already being paid.

Were really past these types of comments. Those of us who work hard are already paying for this mess.

Also, the ones who overspent pay taxes too and probably work hard as well. By the way, if they aren''t assisted it will cost us more in the long run.

all of these republicans in here name calling and acting like 8yo''s, they all seem to deflect the real issue at hand. Why is YOUR Republican President creating a socialist financial system? You all seem to have the nerve to attack Obama and his ideas, well, clean up your own house.

A couple of weeks ago the sky was subject to fall if we didn''t pass the bailout plan. Several days after it passed, President Bush is still trying to determine the best way to spend it. No assured help for the people, just the companies who created the crisis. What a mess. Like it or not, say hello to President Obama.

Did anyone notice that as the simian of idiot speak, aka the bushwacker, stocks tumbled from 30 to below 300 pts. Does this scare anyone besides me?

We need a one-on-one forum where the public can voice their outrage and personal loss to those who perpetrated this fiasco. Make those culprits sit there for one week straight for 12 hours a day listening to the personal destruction and devastation in people''s lives caused by their greed and vain philosophies. Then sentence them to no less than 6 years in jail with no ability for early parole and with no abiblity to ever work in the financial or government sectors ever again.

I want jail sentences, huge fines, stripping of ability to work in the financial sector again, and public humiliation of the those whose philosopy of deregulation started this mess (Greenspan, Gramm) as well as those who perpetrated the derivative swaps etc. knowing they were junk. I want everyone involved, including Congress, to at the very least have public humilation, and for those who created and sponsored the deregulation philosophy as well as those who carried out criminal behavior to go to jail. Nothing less will ever suffice such corrupt and selfish behavior.

This administration should do absolutely nothing to attempt to fix this economic crisis because I don''t trust the folks that got us here to remedy the situation whatsoever. Secondly, they should change the date of the inauguartion to December 1, 2008. When one is terminated, some companies immediately walk you to the door in spite of the 2 weeks notice you may have given for fear of one doing internal damage to their systems. It should be no difference with the presidency of the US!

We are seeing the first shots in the war to create a worldwide currency and it will not be the dollar.
