My thoughts on this? So what. They did NOTHING wrong. its like all the monday morning quarterbacks after 911 and Iraq. This was new territory, there were no rules and the govt was trying to make things up as they went. he failed to mention that the govt forced money on many institutions so that they would loan. We needed to cash into the market. Of course people are going to capitalize on this. Woouldnt you? I claimed my $1500 for the new windows I put in. As of my post a few weeks back - TARP was paid back in full and MORE funds are on the way.
Im not saying Im a fan of this, but its not as bad as he makes it out to be. you need to spend $ to make $.

Did you read the same article I did? Or did you read Striperman's Cyborg Couch Potato Abduction article?
