Crisis Strategy: Coping With Trillion Dollar Deficits

"And who knows how much bigger the budget hole could grow with companies like GM lapping up Uncle Sam’s bailouts."

What in the world is wrong with you people?? GM and Chrysler get $13.4 billion in LOANS compared to the remainder of the $350 billion giveaway for the financial sector, plus apparently ANOTHER $350 billion soon.

The financial sector is clearly to blame for this crisis (along with a 'look the other way' government) and this author, who isn't even decent enough to identify himself, blames GM. Wall Street and the banking system is corrupt, and as long as talking heads keep ignoring this fact, it will happen again, and frankly, I for one am awfully tired of hearing from them.

All those financial types believe themselves to be brilliant for devising different derivitive schemes that make something of nothing knowing all along it is a zero sum game. I submit that Farmerfloyd above understands economics a heck of a lot better than anyone on Wall Street.

So for all you financial types, go get a latte while the rest of us get this thing straightened out, and don't come from under your rock til we say so.
