It does appear, well after the hogs are outside the lot and wasting away, some hurried-greedy overseers left most of the gates open far too long. No need to close them now. We need a newly constructed lot and new overseers.



"Nearer my God to thee"...and the Band Played On even after Randy Shilts'' death. It''s still playing.

Disgusted and anticipating the economic worst...

Well there might still be jobs left for Americans at home, jobs like blacksmith or weaver.

They''re throwing a temper tantrum to show congress they''re worried if they don''t get the big bailout. It''ll only be the first of many bailouts if Congress takes the bait.
Paulson and Bush know they''ll be gone in 4 months anyway and someone else will have to fix the mess.

Wall-street they act like a bunch of little kids. Iwonder how much more it would drop if they were told hell-no no money now no money ever the American people are sick of you and congress. And buy the way the country,s that you took this money from CAN COME AND GET YOU NO QUESTIONS ASK! I THINK THIS PLAN WILL WORK.

If corporations hadn''t moved manufacturing overseas, then money spent for goods would stay here in the U.S., and american workers would be getting the wage to make those goods. Sure, its a little cheaper to manufacture goods in china, but at what long-term cost to the economy??
American corporations are greedy traitors.
Bring back the factories!
Only buy products that say on the label
MADE IN THE USA
not communist china!!
So we might pay 5 to 10% more for things, so what??
Its better than this ***, where our economy is unstable and the value of the dollar is heavily affected by overseas monetary trading.
Keep america storng, corporations.. Stop selling your souls to foreign nationals for a slightly increased profit margin!!
In the long run, we ALL benefit from domestic manufacturing, and the extra money we pay is well worth it to keep american workers employed, and keeping dollars circulating in OUR economy, not China!

---"The main concern is that the $700 billion bailout plan won''t be enough to stimulate growth"---

What are they saying, they want more? :(

The global economy started slowing down when the price of oil started going up. It''s come down since, but I think that''s still the root of the problem.

Not only did hope to see the bailout to be a loan plus trusteeship of the bad stocks to limit the government''s risk to bankruptcy, I was hoping Government would push for the money to be used to get going with nuclear power and off-shore drilling.

It''s a waste of scarce resources for banks to be lending money out as a convenience and substitute for savings of a nation that''s gotten out of the habit of delaying gratification.

Oh gawd people snap out of it. It will go up again tomorrow. Up, down, up, down. It aint anything but a game to scare the kids before they go to bed. It''s all fixed.

If you have to wear glasses then you probably wouldn''t survive very long anyway.
