"Absolutely. Unfortunately for us, that would seem to set the stage for bail outs which I'm against..... Just another mess that illustrates why the government should keep it's big nose out of business......"

All that aside, seeing how we're in the mess now and nobody comes to my house for advice, what bothers me most is that it's being portrayed as greedy bankers. A failure of capitalism. Of course I abhor the socialization of loss that is currently occurring.

It's really the result of political correctness. Politically correct thinking put into action. Everybody thinks he's Jean Luc Piccard just because they watched Star Trek. Make it so.

And greedy bankers and so on and so forth. Sigh.
