1. On the bright side: if it keeps going down, we won't have to bail them out. |

Better that they suffer the losses than poverty stricken Americans who will suffer further inflation should the bailout pass.

2. Actually, the more they go down, the more urgent the bailout will seem |

They'll go down just far enough to make the taxpayer cry "Uncle" and then agree to give our money away to a bunch of gamblers.

4. Probably Not Because There Is A Constitutional Presumption Of Innocence |
