I’m sure some will say I’m an alarmist. A grand conspiracy theorist. However, bailouts are all the rage for large companies these days. If we look at the reasoning given to us about bailing out the failed, antiquated, and obsolete GM and Chrysler, a Walmart bailout doesn’t seem that far fetched. GM and Chrysler were [...]

It’s going to be 6-9 months before things start moving into recovery, and they are going to get much worse over the next 3 months. And that is a best case scenario. Why is this recession going to be so long and so severe? Simple, we denied it was happening for almost an entire year!
Remember, [...]

Here’s an idea for the government bailout program that the vast majority of Americans don’t support. Give us an opt out clause on our taxes for the next 10 years.
Now, I’m not talking about opting out of our taxes. Those of us who don’t support the bailout will still have to pay our taxes as [...]

I’ll admit that I don’t know much about Sheila Blair (chair of the FDIC), but at least she is coming up with ideas that actually make economic sense! Paulson on the other hand has already spent 1/3 of the $700 billion dollars he charged on the National American Express, and believe me when I say [...]

Fire Henry Paulson

There are plenty of things to be passionate about. Firing people is usually not something that I am passionate about. However, when there is someone whose ideas are so detrimental to the stability of the American economy, we need to get rid of him. If you’ve been buried under a rock, Henry Paulson is the [...]

I’ve Got a Hawt Post about Parmesan

I love WordPress! I particularly love getting picked up as a hawt post and watching the discussion take place. The debate. Everyone has two cents, and despite the $700 billion bailout of the banking industry, those two cents are worth something. I might not agree with certain people, but I’m glad to have this virtual [...]

Proposition 12: This bill would enact the Veterans’ Bond Act of 2008 which, if approved, would authorize, for purposes of financing a specified program for farm, home, and mobilehome purchase assistance for veterans, the issuance, pursuant to the State General Obligation Bond Law, of bonds in the amount of $900,000,000.
My Take
This should be an obvious [...]

Bush Economy Logic

Anyone else notice something funny about Bush reasoning:
1. Just months ago, talk about how the economy is strong.
2. Witness the largest bank collapses in the history of the country
3. Tell America we need a $700 billion bailout
If Bush was so incredibly wrong about the economy several months back, why would we take his economic advice [...]
