EVERYTHING 'affects the Middle Class'... (and also the 'Rich class', the 'poor class', whatever!)

But allowing the mega-bailout firms to escape *without* repaying the taxpayers for their TARP bailouts (which is but a small fraction of the TRILLIONS of dollars of economic damage that can be chalked-up at their footsteps), and *without* implementing strong INCENTIVES to deter this kind of massive economy destroying financial collapse in the future would *ALSO* "affect the Middle Class", and, perhaps affect it in a near TERMINAL WAY.

So, ALL ACTIONS have consequences (you haven't outlined anything particularly new with your comment in that regard....)

But INACTION has consequences just as well! (And, in this case, I'd say it has CLEARLY MORE SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS consequences to the 'Middle Class' and to everyone the Hell else in America too.)
