    Well I watched Pelosi's Press Confrence earlier. Why the hell would she reject even lowering the capital gains tax temporarily?

    Let them bleed like they have bled the American people. Sell their stock options, their homes, their cars.

    I can't believe its actually being considered AGAIN to bail these crooked bastards out.

    The way I see it, these companies got what they deserved. Running around handing loans to anyone who walks in the door and then tagging them with ridiculous rates they obviously can't pay=impending failure. However, something needs to be done about it. Letting these companies go to **** will cause a lot of problems, but these CEO's don't deserve any form of retribution whatsoever for being ****-ups. It's a pretty hard question to answer, unfortunately there isn't sufficient time to make a good decision before some really serious implications occur from these companies going bankrupt, and it's already ****ting on wall street as we speak. This is going to be a challenge.

    Yes, it's the only way in my opinion.

    We need these companies, debt is inevitable in a country with entrepreneurs, people fail to realize this. Think about it, for expansion of the job market, engineers, architects, businesses, etc. it all relies on people borrowing money. I don't know there loan policies, its kinda irrelevant now. But I do feel we need this bailout, and there has been speculation that not doing the bailout would have a much higher cost to the US than what we are lending these companies.

    Also people remember this is a bailout, it's not just giving them 1 trillion dollars outright.

    Well wasn't that the original plan proposed?

    I just think that things like cutting the corporate tax rate and cutting the capital gains tax would help to cut back on how much we spend in the end.
