I mean, if you were in Bush's shoes now, would you rather see many of the public fail or rather have a few fall and sustain the system?
Like a few have said before, I have not enough information to talk in-depth about this topic, but I see the 700 billion (as i said before) the lesser of 2 evils. It's just a matter of time now until we see what the decision truely does to the American Economy...
So it's fair for us to shell out 700 billion to companies that nobody really even cares about?
700 BILLION. That's about $2300 per person (assuming the population is 300m), without taking into account that a large portion of that is made up of minors that can't work. And not many people can afford to just give out that much money.
I can't wait for January. Maybe then we'll actually have a president who's smart enough to not pineapple everything up.
