"The prepackaged plan allows CIT to restructure its debt while trying to keep badly needed loans flowing to thousands of mid-sized and small businesses. The plan keeps CIT's operations alive and makes it possible for the company to exit bankruptcy by year's end." Kind of self-explanatory, isn't it Jim? Black seems to be evaluating it as a dumb business deal, when it's really part of the economic stimulus. I heard on the radio today that one of the businesses that depend on CIT for loans to carry it's daily operations is Dunkin' Doughnuts.
