I agree. To me personally this is the most bearish of signals. Apparently there is a timebomb and they're hiring a monkey to disarm it. It's like sending a few sandbags to NewOrleans to stem the floods. It only delays the flood and the burst will be even greater. Having Bernanke in on this plan means there is unprecedented, real trouble. Ursa..
Today, capitalism failed. There is no such thing as free markets. Communism reigned in America today. Hello bloated tax bill for the responsible.
I thought that bush was behind the big reform for tighter bankruptcy laws along with low rates so everyone could borrow. Now he wants a government bailout. I guess that makes perfect sense.
Alright then, that means you are also opposed to tax deductions for mortgage interest. That's a subsidy.
I wrote that last night before I woke and saw big profits in LEND. But I still have to say a bailout doesn't seem right. Now we've got 2 parties in a competitive race to spend more to get votes. What was that saying? - "A democracy lasts only up to the point where people figure out that they can vote money out of the public treasury. Then it's over." It's a vicious cycle with momentum behind it, and we have no plan in this country for ending it.
No, sherlock. a mortgage deduction is open to all participants and NOT a bailout for dirty speculators, learn the difference.
You're splitting hairs. If you truly believe in free markets then you must oppose all government subsidies, whether it's for tobacco farmers, oil drillers or homeowners. I take it from your response you enjoy your mortgage tax deduction, which means you are not a true free market advocate. No problem. Enjoy your government subsidy.
