Could these guys be kissing up to Bernake and Paulson any more?
Despite claims that they need to, they are doing nothing to asure us that this is necessary. The congressmen are throwing softball questions and getting off topic. One of them went on about minoirty business owners. While minority business owners are important, is this what we should be focusing on when we talk about $700 billion dollars? Lets get to the root of the problem, please, instead of talking about fluff.
Paulson is doing nothing to convince me that this isn't a big scam. And the congressmen aren't forcing the issue. We are not stupid. We have a right to know. And when several economists are insisting a bailout isn't necessary, forgive me for being skeptical of Paulson's massive proposal when he has given us nothing to back it up.
This thing better not pass, or there will be hell to pay.
