Obama's Stimulus Package is Morphing Into a Monster

bail out the auto makers????? how 'bout this? get rid of the corporate jets, the six figure execs, the golden parachutes and finally the union who's only purpose is to protect the slackers. offer a "liveable" wage and you'd have people beating down the doors wanting to work. make "american" cars once again affordable to the general public and i'll bet they could bail themselves out!!!

Obama's Stimulus Package is Morphing Into a Monster

unless some of this money makes it into the hands of the consumers - none of the bailouts are going to work...WE THE PEOPLE



BAILOUT THE CONSUMERS!



The only thing the mortgage lenders are doing with the bailout is putting homeowners late house payments & fees back on to the principal - they are not using the money to help homeowners so where is it going?



This country needs a large bailout to CONSUMERS.
People no longer have money to buy houses, cars, furniture, stocks, and most no longer have money for gasoline to get back and forth to work or groceries.



If the consumers were given a large bailout immediately - the impact on the economy would be a major upswing.



Why is it that no one with the power for these decisions has realized this? When do the American people who ultimately foot the bill for the bailouts count? When have they suffered enough that they matter to our government??



If they would have split that same amount of money up between all the taxpayers - CONSUMERS could have caught up their houses and probably re-financed, purchased houses and cars for the ones that needed to, bought stock and so on and so on.



It would have been an immediate jump-start to the economy (nearly overnight) and would have affected every sector that is experiencing problems including banks, automakers, retail, Wall Street and everywhere else. WHY DOESN'T ANYONE IN POWER SEE OR UNDERSTAND THIS???
