All gone to sh t because of bad business practices.

And they want to put a cap on CEO bonuses.


Why aren't the CEOs in jail or at least on the street?

Excellent question - why are the CEOs free? Their greed got us into this situation.

All the people with 401ks in the stock market are really taking a beating.

Good reason...they're Dems, and it wouldn't necessarily be ceo's; try Waters, Frank and even Franklin Raines. Hannity is playing 2004 comments from the above of how solvent and solid Fannie and Freddie were.... yeah right.

Pelosi's tongue lashing of Bush didn't help right before the vote. Some Republicans voted based on that.
So much for her bringing civility to the Congress.

Finances are going south for the moment. Every where is being hit and we really need to be ready. Hopefully this is not nearly as bad as some are saying it could be. sigh

I am not an economic major, but I just have a problem with the solution to our nation in a bad debt situation, being one that opens the door for more loans.

Isn't an economy based mostly on borrowing destined to collapse?

What happened to saving for what you want?

It would seem thing American business does best, is borrow money.

What makes you think the issues here are too important for the rest of the world to pay attention to?
Unless perhaps you think the issues in America don't affect anyone else in the world. Perhaps if more Conrads were allowed to step up & get involved with the issues at hand, fewer of these nasty problems would have been allowed to have gotten this screwed up in the first place...

...but I guess a spoiled life on the West coast could make one's mouth work faster than one's brain.
very mad

Oh Spice ! I love it when three bone-headed Rebubs gang up on me !

It is definitely far reaching , but I find it annoying to see alot of pot-shots posts from foreigners.
This whole thing is caused by moral fabric of American's beaking down ( Dems and Repubs ) .
American's think credit and using everyone elses money is an entitlement. We got used to buying anything we wanted with someone elses money on loan or credit.
It has absolutely nothing to do with who was in last as President , and alot to do with this administration and it's lack of oversight.

And believe me , we're feeling it good here in California ! barf

Far be it from me to support Conrad but he is an American, also last I looked this was an INTERNATIONAL forum and all our opinions are as valuable as those of our American friends.

Anyway....as you rightly point out much of the money was borrowed from us and our financial systems are threatened too.

I agree with your other points
