Bingo! Same goes for the automotive companies and corporate sector. Enough bailing out every part of our economy. The country cannot function without a financial system and if major national banks collapse, it would disastrous. But it needs to stop there.

You said it. And the worst part is, the govornment then wants to tell them how to run their companies. The post master general makes 800k but they want to set the top pay private sector at 500k

Bingo! That's why you lost.
An economy in crisis needs intervention.

"You" as in our children?
Blind intervention for the sake of doing something won't work. There is a reason the Dow is tanking to it's lowest point in 6 years. The plan is a fraud. What are you guys hanging on to. Why can't you admit the whole thing is a mistake and they should have torn it up and started over. This time with the American people in mind.

The reason the Dow is tanking is because we're in the depths of a severe Global recession. You seem to be asserting the plan to remedy is the source of the problem.
Be careful with this sort of circular logic. It doesn't make a lot of sense and will get RIROCKHOUND all in a tizzy.

You call that "proof"?
So when it tanked a week ago, or the other week before that, or the months before that...
Was that all hysteria over Obama's plan also?
