If there is to be a bailout let them bail out the American people
It is average Americans who are suffering under the * administrations hidden inflation along with the devalued worth of their real estate. They can no longer make their mortgage payments and are now being told that they need to take out another loan to repair losses to the institutions that have reaped billions in profits from mortgages they had no good business sense in making.
The drop in real property values is due to loss of jobs and more poor decisions by the very same mavens of greed.
If "we the people" are called upon to bail out "our" financial system, let us demand we use our money wisely and provide it to the people who need it to keep a roof over their heads. If people can make their financial obligations the banks will not be looking at so many foreclosures and may need to tighten their own belts a bit to help us through this crisis.

1. Paulson says "Thanks, but no thanks" to helping the People.
He wants quick and for the Big Boys only.

Once they own everything, then we'll have to listen to them

3. They will actually evict the people from their homes...
if the 4 million foreclosures are finalized. Why not help them instead of the banks??
