Re: Obama vs. McCain

typical of the american government to be more concerned about the millions of dollars invested by lazy, greedy americans than of the homes of those poor, hardworking families who have nowhere to live.  what about their bailout?

Re: Obama vs. McCain

@ cebteq You mean France, not the USSR.

@ JamesT you mean neo-conservative, not neo-liberal

@ Biotek Republicans blamed Democrats for mentioning that their "free-market" approach got us into this mess, which is true. Republicans blamed Democrats for bringing up that they bear some responsibility, and took that as an excuse to again take no responsibility. It also works conveniently to distance the party from their massively un-popular leader, GW, as the election season heats up.

I'm not an economist. The "everyman" response is to complain, perhaps rightly so, that the Gov't hasn't helped them when they're in need, so why should the banks get $700 billion. This is a rather emotional and ignorant response. The bill would freeze home foreclosures, first of all. But more importantly, both "Main Street" (ugh) and Wall Street have to prosper for a healthy economy, not one or the other. Without a strong financial investment system the country falls apart, and we're waiting in food lines. Inflation spikes. Without these banks there is nowhere to go for credit or loans which means few people can even afford to buy furniture. This isn't like a simple cash transaction for fuck's sake.

What happened today is Republicans listened to their constituents, like cebteq, because they are worried about being re-elected if they piss them off; it was 100% politics. Unfortunately, constituents don't always know best, and that's a problem with democracv.

Re: Obama vs. McCain

a bit late with the freezing home foreclusres, no?  wasnt it the banks that caused this whole realestate bubble to begin with?  werent they the ones loaning money to people who couldnt afford it, knowing damn well that those houses will one day be worth half the purchasing price?  arent our mortgage payments 99.999% interest?  doesnt more than half of our paycheck go towards owning our own home.  what do you know, you live with your mom.

fuck the banks/ government/ big corporations.  im a constituent of dumpster diving
