No, I can't answer that!

Another good question is why is Goldman Sachs making $3 billion in one quarter when we are in the worst recession since the great depression.

I would like to hear Paulson's answer on that.

"Don't bite the hand that feeds you" is no longer fitting in 2009. Otherwise the banks would be bowing down to us because if not for American taxpayers, the banks left standing would not have the very money they are so tightly hanging onto.

Terry I just authored a blog post with your name in it

Have a great and successful weekend

HI Terry, I am looking for your neighborhood posts that get 1,000 points each right now if they link in Bob Stewards post.  I have not found one yet.  You can write on monday and tuesday.  I will read them, I promise. :)

Terry I love the $7500 per person idea, but I would bet my share that only about 10% would have used the money wisely like paying down debt, saving their homes from foreclosure, etc....

Terry,

Your solution is to simple and one that is sure to have never been thought of because of the simplicity.

Hi Terry, I have no idea, but the more I see the more I think the people should have been given the money --- All of it! :-)

Yours is a simple solution, but the Government doesn't like simple solutions.  There are always too many reasons why "simple" won't work.  This is why the Government shouldn't be running our healthcare!  It will be a nightmare from which we will never wake.

Terry,

I have no idea what could have been done! You Idea seems great! I would love to believe it were that simple!

Have a great week!

Judy

I'm dreading all the new taxes we're going to be hit with due to the government handing out money.

Terry, we all know the answer. If every family recieved the money, the economy would get back on track almost immediately. BUT! With the money spread throughout the economy, a very small amount would find it's way back to the president in his reelection campaign. How much $ do you think will be contributed to him from the auto unions, big banks, etc.? It's a big, transparent, politics beyond the usual scam.
