The fact that legislators could put these in the Bail Out Provision along with other Pork that goes into almost every bill is a reflection of our lack of involvment in our government at every level, not punishing lawmakers for their wastefullness, and a lack of term limits that make them King of the Manor and the rest of us serfs waitng for a few crumbs to be tossed our way.

We need, as a campaing a few years ago in Florida, used as a rallying cry, Throw the Rascals Out!

I have lost 35% of my IRA; Far as I know I have not seen my name on any bill or law that will reimburse me for my loss.

The Wall Street bunch belong in jail not on a yacht or estate.

That is how I see ti.

Vote out whoever voted YEA on this bill?

Biden-YEA

McCain-Yea

Obama-YEA

Yea! Now what are we going to do?

Sure glad they hurried this through to save the economy!

Sad when all you have to do to be an imformed voter is to be walking down the street on Registration/Voting day. Hey! you want a ride. You have to do me a favor and vote first, then I'll take you whereever you want to go.

Well you "Get What You Get"

I'm all for this "Survivor" mentality, "The Tribe Has Spoken", but we all have to be on the same page or it won't matter.

Anybody know what Ross Perot and Admiral Stockdale are doing these days?

This is called "soft despotism," because just like those despots like Sadam Hussein, and ping pong of North Korea they suck the life out of the economy and oppress the people who put them in power.

The 850 billion dollar bailout moves money to big giant institutions, banks, lenders and the stock market. It does this with the "maybe hope, i.e.. BIG MAYBE", the trickle down effect will help the economy. This bail out only helps the very rich big business for taking very big risk in the name of profit. They gambled and lost and the rest of us have been made to pay for there mistakes.

I am on the guy and gal who works for living. I am on the guy and gal who lost a job. I for more education for children and more training for the unemployed. I am for more and cheaper medical care. Everyone in the U.S., people and business alike, would be benefit from cheaper, cleaner energy. I am for creating jobs in THE USA!!!!! The 850 billion dollar is supporting the wrong segment of society. I am for investing in America, but not only for the very rich, big business, which does nothing immediate for the little working guy and gal and the family who is on the edge of life paying bills and may or already loose there home. This 850 billion dollar investment should GO TO THE 95% USA workers, NOT to the 5%. If we produce more clean energy inside the USA, we create more jobs and lower our energy cost and clean our enviroment.

It seems the needs of the average US citizen continues to be ignored. WE ARE IN THE TRENCHES OF EVERYDAY LIFE - THE WORKING MAN AND WOMAN; WE NEED OUR GOVERNMENT TO BE SUPPORTIVE OF US NOW. Our governement supports big business in the very hope, the crumbs of their success will help the rest of us, i.e. maybe help us....

Get out and vote. The solution to an economic mess is not someone who will prevent the building of the economy through preventing the use of fuel sources. One month ago, the oil prices were creating an international food shortage because of the utilization of corn for fuel...so we were told. Now, the loans which Fannie and Freddie made, under the encouragement of demos and our President, have gone sour, due to the bursting of another bubble. The lack of foresight is startling. We need someone who will say no to lobbyists, and resist with all that one has the downward spiral. It is now or never. Participate in the system. Don't gripe. Write letters to the editor, speak to your representatives, organize a rally, march on Washington...It is not only the left or liberal who has a voice. It is YOU!

I am with you...folks keep drinking from the same fountain. Time to just say "NO" to Republicrats! Let's face it, both parties have lost touch. They are the SAME! Dems promoise tax increases and more government, whereas Reps promise less government and taxes...but give us the same. When you think you are playing with Monopoly money, it's easy to take chances to win. If you lose, no problem...just play another game. I, for one, am damn tired of their games! Vote for a third party this go-around. They don't give us a "no confidence" space on the ballot!

It is amazing to watch the mentality challenged ralling for Hussain and more government. Government caused this problem and government is the problem. It would be nice if at least some of the mid-stream news media was not liberal.
