I would just like to propose something i was pondering last night


Why doesn't our government quit bailing out these banks and business and say give us 25000 or 30000 apiece anyone who pays taxes quit spending thousands of billions of dollars to companys who in the end are going to fail anyway just give it too the people to spend it will stimulate our economy whether the american ppl spend it frivilously or put it into the banks to pay off loans they cant pay off now

where is this $$ going to come from?

Yes, they should give the money to the people

Try this, why not make the bankers give up personal assets to pay us back for the money THEY lost for starters?

Also how about driving the bankers out of the federal treasury?

how about......

i got nothing

same place they get it to pay back the banks to bail them out

Lets dump billions of dollars into failing institutions. Frankly, i can see maybe the banks, But GM, Dodge and Ford did it to themselves. They built inferior automobiles for years which couldnt compete to the quality of Honda, Toyota and many others. People started buying those cause they wanted cars that dont break, not necisarily cause they wanted to, but they need something reliable. People put faith into what they know works.

Ford is actually doing okay. They haven't requested any bailout money

they gave the big 3 700 billion dollars last year what do you they didn't get bailout money

Ford Motor, seeking to improve its balance sheet and remain competitive with its rivals, said late Wednesday it is aiming to retire up to $10.4 billion of its debt, essentially making its current shareholders pay for the kind of refinancing that General Motors and Chrysler have obtained from U.S. taxpayers.

The car company, which so far has shunned government bailout money, said it wants to swap debt for cash and stock.

Hyperinflation.

huh? The banks got $700B - GM and Chrysler received far less.

Monetary base has doubled in a 3 month time. I think this has already guaranteed us the hyperinflation.

Of course, I do not pay any attention to Wikipedia definitions (lies). Like the old school, I use this one: an inflation is an increase in money supply, not a raise in prices.

where does the money come from to pay their expensive salaries or their healthcare?



why do we need to bail out these stupid banks and why do we need to bail out wallstreet and all the gabillion dollar bonuses these ****ing executives got from the bailout?


**** THEM

We can't fnck them. These people pay Obama, and Obama will do what they say.

We can only watch, and enjoy the show.

GM and Chrysler have gotten less than 25% of what was given away to the banks, and were required to show a whole lot more accountability before they could get it. The banks got it handed to them with no strings attached.

Ford Motor Company, to this point, has taken absolutely NO bailout money from the government.

the money comes from thin air. this is their crises, because they learned how to slip through the loopholes of capitalism.

That word certainly have been a better approach than what we got wouldn't it?

Unfortunately the economy has many working parts. Where we would be richer for a brief period of time, inflation would occur as a direct result from us spending that money. The price of food, clothing, gas, etc. would all increase. The downside is, we wouldn't have permanent wages to adjust for the increased prices...

It is smarter than giving it to those companies as the freemarket needs to weedout businesses that are mismanaged...

And now they are trying to spread socialism to prevent from having to pay for the loses...

"Privitize profits, socialize losses" isn't that how it goes?
