Broken Arrow: I also don't believe that they can FIX the problem in a weeks time. The American taxpayers haven't been included in this discussion about what is actually happening. Who are the top financial advisors advising our Congress. Not all of the Congressmen and Congresswomen are financial experts. I don't like the idea of people without the expertise making decisions that could last for so many years.
Actually, I watch both parties and they act just like kindergartners. I got you, no, I got you. There is too much hate for George Bush for people to be able to be fair about negotiating. Also, you can't start giving the money away again to the same people who should not have had the loans in the first place. As was said earlier, I think we need to stand back and take a deep breath.
I would like to see a hearing about this and its implications on our economy using different scenarios. Also, there are so many in Congress that have their own fingerprints on this that I'm sure they wouldn't want this to become public.
I'm proud of the senators who stood up and said no. They were listening to their constituents. Phones were ringing off the hook and they were flooded with emails from angry voters.
