The whole thing is a waste.

This idea is ALMOST as lousy as just handing a trillion dollars to the banks.

I'm still waiting to hear how these goobers try to sell us the "Bad Bank Solution".
THAT should be hillarious!

sad part is there is nothing we can do to stop it. I have called my "congressman" and left messages. They don't care man, they really don't. This country is going to be in worse shape for years to come because of this spending spree.

The other sad part of all this is I think people in general really don't care. It always comes back to the " that is how they always do things in DC". It is incredible some of the shit in that bill. Then we get the whole sky is falling lecture and if we don't act soon armagedon will be upon us. Leave the f-ing market alone it will in time correct itself and come back. Maybe start cutting corp and capital gains tax rates to try to jump start things a little. Obama said something yesterday that this stimulus package was the first leg in a multi legged table. I can't wait to se what the other three legs look like. Get ready for Bank Bailout II.
