"Financial meltdown" and "credit crunch" are the most common phrases I hear everytime I turn on the T.V.

Well we can hope that our Congress is smarter than the average bear, but maybe not.

Yea, it passed but the market now said its not what they really wanted, GREED is now wanted, they haven't taken enough from the people, They want more. I say if this keeps up, LET WALL STREE FAIL.

Hey everyone, I saw this in a news article and had to post it, about this bail out:
"We are addressing the real pain felt by Mr. and Mrs. Jones on Main Street," House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said. "They are why we must pass this legislation today."

More "bailouts" for the auto industry - I think they are going to get less then they wanted, though and it supposed to be a loan.

Now might be a time for States that are in a financal hardship to impose a 2-cent add on gas tax to help their state funding.
This woud assist the State, County, and Local Goverments in a time when they are cutting funded programs and jobs.
More taxes are no good, but I feel this could be a real help to our economy in a positive way...
