      Is This a Money Making Bailout?
      I should add, why don't they give the taxpayer a deal like the incredibly generous deal that Buffet picked up from Goldman Sachs? That might be worth something.

      Look buddy I know times are desperate and everyone from Welch, Buffet, Gross down to you are maddly working at the bilge pumps to try to keep the SSTitanic afloat but if it's such a bloody good bargain why don't they buy it? BECAUSE IT AINT. So far the sovereign funds, the so called "smart money", the insiders,, the funds have poured their money into these lead balloons and it's gone down the toilet. Now it's the turn of the taxpayer to step up to the plate. Good luck taxpayer. You'll need it.

      GE: Betting on a Global Growth Story
      Todd I have a problem with your global growth story and the problem is DEBT. In 1945 the US economy had a private debt to GDP ratio of 38%. It is now 283%. And your government proposes to borrow as much as another $700 billion for the bailout. Apparently the rest of the OECD bar France has also embraced this debt folly with almost as much enthusiasm. The result THE GLOBAL ECONOMY IS NOW CARRYING ROUGHLY TWICE THE LEVEL OF DEBT THAT PRECIPITATED THE GREAT DEPRESSION.
      Now I don't pretend to know much about GE but what I do know is that they have aggessively lent money to those desperate for money.

      Banning Shorts Works in Fancy Restaurants, Not the Marketplace
      Good article. THis market is being outrageously manipulated by the powers that be to try to prevent it from slumping. If you think that's smart well perhaps reflect on everything else they've done so far to contribute to this diabollical situation. In the end the financial chickens will all come home to roost no matter how they try to pervert the process.

      9 Reasons Why We Are Close to, If Not Past, the Bottom
      I think your sick grin says it all. And what's the news today. Oh nothing much, a big British Bank, B&B went broke and is going to be nationalised by the Btitish Gov and the word is that Fortis could go under on Monday. I see Jack Welch and Buffet are running around telling everyone who'll listen that if they don't pass the bailout, we're all toast. And you're still bottom calling? How original! My advice to you, is start stocking up on canned goods.

      Bailouts Are Painful - And Should Be
      Good article David. But Hank and Ben would say they have tried the piecemeal approach and it is not working because we are facing a collapse of the whole system. Wall Steet rallied on Friday on the assumption that they'll get their outrageous bailout with borrowed money because America is deemed to be too big to fail.
      When you look at the rapacious terms that Buffet got from Goldman Sachs, supposedly one of the strongest, it is very clear to see who Wall Street sees as the sucker at this poker table, the TAXPAYER.

      The Myth of the Credit Market 'Push'
      I am very disappointed with you Paul. The grotesque excesses that created this latest bubble would rival anything in the financial history of the human race and so soon after the dot com dementia. Apparently you think, judging by a previous posting of your's, which I now can't find, that the answer lies in borrowing another $700 billion of other people's money and gifting it to the thieving low lifes who created this problem in the first place. When you are hoplessly in debt, going deeper in debt will only make the problem worse. That applies to America as much as it applies to an individual.

      O Bailout Package, Where Art Thou?
      You are so so right mate. The Dow has a rollicking rally one can only presume on the basis that they reckon that sooner or later the world will recognize that America is simply too big to fail and the only answer is to provide those filthy coniving low lifes on Wall Street with another $700 billion of other people's money to continue their Ponzi game.

      Worrying About Large-Deposit Bank Runs
      i think the powers that be are simply selecting those that they think have the greatest chance of surviving the oncoming greater depression with these sweetheart deals.

      Are the Credit Markets Still Healthy?
      Felix I respect you as a person of intelligence. The news today is shocking but the market is soaring on the basis that an already hopelessly indebted American government is going to take on as much as $700 billion in additional debt. Mate this dementia can't sustain this hoplessly manipulaterd market for much longer. Something very ugly is coming.

      What's Wrong with the Trickle-Down Bailout?
      Lex there is not hope in this Sodom and Gomorrah market. The market is soaring today in the face of a lot of shocking news and on the expectation that the already hopelessly indebted American governent will take on as much as another $700 billion dollars in debt for these parasitic bankers. Look after yourself mate.

      What's the Smartest Money Doing? Buffett's Buying Goldman Sachs
      It's a fantastic deal for Buffet and it shows just how desperate Goldman is for cash. But I agree with you Kath H. This is all about all hands to the bilge pumps on the SS Titanic. I recall Soros put $250 million into Lehman shares. Gee I wonder if he got any of that great investment out.

      Mortgage Delinquencies Continue to Climb, Watch Out for Other Loans
      Well you can see why the boys need another $700 billion to throw at the problem. Ben has just said that things will get worse if America slips into a recession. I'd describe the current situation in the housing market as a depression.
