i'm not surprised this didn't pass they had head of treasury on 60 mins last night... opposition to this plan was basically stating us buying property NO ONE ELSE wants to buy will basically help out the companies that screwed us to begin with. they also said it would risky move b/c there is no gaurantee it would fix the situation and that it wouldn't make it worse.

i'm only for it if it will fix economy ... i don't think bailing out crooked execs for poor accounting practices is right.

I don't think it will bail out the economy, therefore I'm glad it didn't pass.
