No wonder they want it NOW |

Ok, going through Dodd's plan... far more substantive than Paulson's
So far here is the CRITICAL point
Section Eight of Paulson's says accountabitly Dodd's plan has monthly reporting obligations to both the House and the Senate, as well as weekly open reports on what is going on
They are also rquiring a full actuarial report of all they do.
So far, this is a far better plan... now back to readyng and highlingthign this... hmmm call tomorrow will be more nfrmed as wel

28. Wow...thanks for the links to Half Past Human |
|
and Urban Survival. It all sounds like something out of a science fiction movie, and yet I think I have an idea how it might work. I'm still blown away by it all, and yet it's consistent with my lifelong interest in synchronicity.
So something "big" could happen on or around October 7th? Given the catastrophic happenings in the financial world this past week, it sounds we could be in for a very nasty October surprise.

18. Well, that's when the Quarterly Reports start becoming public. |

September is the end of the fiscal year, not just for the federal government, but for many companies as well.

It's like the pigs see the party is ending soon and want to pull one last big tax money heist. It seems more like a drug binge than a crisis.

11. Well overall this is a good plan, DODD's but it still is missing |
|
some bones
That said, it does have supervision, deals with conflict of interest and yes, deals with homeowners shafted
It is a far better plan than whatever Paulson wanted, and this will lead to oversight....
It is NOT a blank check
They could do more, but this is quite ahem "clean" and does not give a blank check

26. Reports are NOT accountability |
|
Reports w/o the ability to enforce a change by halting a purchase or replacing the decision-makers is just an invitation for some more Bush administration nose-thumbing while they loot even the Treasury's borrowing power. This thread is a definite "skip it".
