yes yes, its all wall street's fault. say nothing of the hundreds of millions of americans who ran a deficit every year for over a decade and over leveraged themselves.

people take about bank capitalization and it makes me laugh, % wise, even the failed banks like lehman were better off than the average consumer.

Yeah no ****. I hate the fact that my tax dollars, no matter how little or big the percentage, is going to bail these cats out. People who are set for life ruining a **** business..

What the hell is that anyhow? I can just imagine my Econ/Business/Marketing teachers turning in their graves right now.

"So class today we learn the principle of ****ing up a business and how you will be rewarded with billions of dollars to un**** it for a minute or two, even though you will probably just end up ****ing it again. Now here is the kicker man, even after you fail multiple times; and yes you will. We will give you a nice fat check, bonuses, and some P****."

They took risks, expecting Americans to pay their debt back on time. Who is really at fault. You tax dollars are also going to bail out morons who don't know how to or care to read loan docs. Great, buy a house you can't afford, screw your neighbors ltv when you go into foreclosure, and bring the rest of the country down with you. Why aren't people *****ing and moaning about these people. Instead, we listen to their sob stories, its rediculous.

Hey but lets parade the auto execs up there for another whipping for asking for 1/4 of what was given to the banking industry without batting an eye. Nice dog and pony though...

That's super mega bull****. There's no reason why they should have got separate treatment. Government needs to own up to not keeping trak of our money that they gave away to the banks.

That money is being spent right now in Vegas as one of the CEO's is getting a BJ while sipping on some swanky wine.

Yeah they should have tracked the money!
