Socialism ain't too bad. So far this month, I've added Fannie, Freddie, AIG, and 8 or 9 banks to my portfolio. Maybe Ford and GM, too.

Muzosi, > i think it's only fair to spread the wealth around a little. they gave a large chunk to their friends and now give a quarter of that to the common folk just to stop them asking "where is my bailout?" i'd rather have a socialist than a crook. The real crooks are those who take hard-earned money from people who worked for it and give it to their constituents in the form of bridges to nowhere and social entitlements. Call them out on it, like Joe the Plumber tried to do, and you'll get crushed by the media. Socialism is not too much different from communism. Both rely on personality cults to replace the profit motive they necessarily killed for the "good of society." Tenchusatsu
