This bailout thing really has me on the fence.

The more I look at it the less confident I am it is the right thing to do, yet, I can see that if it doesn't happen the economy is in trouble because it is very quickly going to affect jobs.

But it seems like a huge gamble to me -- if property values don't come back within, e.g., a year, we could be looking at ANOTHER bailout a year down the road.

It is ugly, no doubt.
