I think they should also let the owners of the MBS's break them up into their component mortgages and auction THEM off. Take away the risk and mystery.

let the FDIC take care of the banks as they fail. There are only a couple large banks left to fail in my op. Then a host of regionals. Wells Fargo, C, JPM, BOA...NCC being iffy will remain. We've already absorbed some of the big ones already.

Right...as we all watch our currency and the worth of our savings go to hell and spend the next decade recovering from an economic disaster...give me a break...

Did you know that the FDIC is nearly out of money to cover deposits? If they didn't have JPM to step in, they couldn't have seized WaMu. WaMu was too big and it would have taken more money cover than FIDC had. Do your rightie blogs talk about that mess?

>Set up an auction site to sell the junk assets and take a 10% COMMISSION. Even e-bay would do. Give the little guy a shot at it.

Not a bad idea...
