The Citi Exclusivity Agreement

My feeling is, "It usually isn't good to countermand the FDIC if you are a major bank under it's auspices."
If WFC is willing to front the consequences of a greater failure, they should go right ahead:
1. Self-ensure their own deposits.
2. Repay the mega billions of dollars they currently have borrowed from the Feds.

I feel that any member of Congress who leaves this forum and seeks re-election should be fired (not-voted for). There was much PORK in the kettle which, once voted for should be immediately repealed. For example, should our Gov spend our money on exporting American Jobs to Samoa, or should they spend the money on us? (Do not even ask regarding my opinion of Bombs vs Americans, which appears to
be the current direction!)

I suggest you ask anyone who leaves to campaign to please explain how they left our government with the following provisions still in place and where they feel they find any money is left to help the American People:

Peace,

Wachovia's NovaStar Waivers: D-Day Delay?

I believe the word is "Greed"! Pay out the big WB bonuses in
December and defer the bad news until next year.
