CNN had a website poll on this yesterday. 70% of respondents were against the bailout, me included.
I hope they fall on their faces and don't approve jack.
I wonder if 70% are for 25% unemployment and a depression. They should make that one of the poll questions.
what i find shocking is nearly 60% here, in what i consider a more educated and knowledgeable demographic, are ignorant enough to vote against.
what's even more shocking is that only 20% are for.
maybe I give AT too much credit. too many teens here that have no understanding of the severity of this.
do you guys just not understand that not doing so will almost certainly put us into another depression era?
seems like you guys are just out to get the CEO's without worry about your own backs.
so you take away his 8 figure bonus. when the economy is in the shitter, he'll still be in his penthouse on park ave. while you'll be worry about the next meal on your table.
People can't see that it's not the CEOs they are bailing out, they are bailing out their own asses.
This is what we get for not educating our kids in how companies actually run and why the economy needs banks. It's also what we get for spoiling our kids and not teaching them the value of in-depth thought.
Stupid people are everywhere. None are more stupid than those who would cut off their own nose to spite their face.
