We the people have so much money

We can bail out every company and fund. :rolleyes:

WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Treasury Department says it will tap into a Depression-era fund to provide guarantees for the nation's money market mutual funds while the Federal Reserve says it will expand its emergency lending program to help support the $2 trillion in assets of the funds.

AMERICA, FUCK YEAH!

Thank god I don't have kids or I'd feel a little guilty for leaving them with trillions of dollars of worthless paper and 50% income tax rates.

Corporate Welfare, what a great country we live in. I hope those high paid CEO's and CFO's go live under a bridge. Screw em !!!

Why not they have tapped into everything else, I hate to see where we are 10 years down the road.

I love how corporate greed has gotten us to where we are today. Executive management heavily lined their pockets making extremely risky business decisions that have now doomed their companies. And since these companies are too large to fail, the average American citizen, who makes an estimated 200-300 times less a year than these executive sharks, now have to foot the bill in higher taxes while these sharks get hefty separation packages.

If you really start to peel away the layers, look at the financial institutions which are not hurting.

Then ask yourself why some institutions are fairly solvent and jumping on the takeover bandwagon while others are completely insolvent and are being bailed out. Here's a hint; those previously insolvent and now government backed entities are the ones being sought by the solvent entities.

Forget the bailouts, let all of them fail and let people trade bread for a year or two and it will get fixed quick.

You know, I'd be even more pissed if I paid income tax.
