Since I never supported an outright bailout without restructuring, and my postings can only be said to reflect public opinion if you can find a corresponding poll that supports the notion on a given issue, I don't think you have really found anything significant. Perhaps not, but since public opinion moves like molasses and you are usually at the forefront of thinking, I wondered if there isn't a shift in public thinking on the bailouts? Subtle change I thought I detected. An example of the moral hazard as I see it was recent action in California. First the Governor had a solution and then the legislature had a solution and I think it has all been scuttled? ........the federal government will bail thme out. steve
