Common Sense
This little nugget of common sense from Michael Moore on Countdown.
One of Mr. Moore's best points was the way "the Big Three" were treated/received compared to way "the Thieves of Wall Street" were accommodated with no strings, no accountability. Sure "the Big Three" doesn't deserve a bailout that exceeds their worth but then neither do "the Thieves of Wall Street". The so-called experts don't get it and neither does Congress.
Congress needs to freeze the funds allocated for TARP and remove Mr. Paulson's hand from the "cookie jar"!
It is estimated that 1.2 million jobs were lost in 2008. If we let "the Big Three" collapse that will mean an estimated 3 million jobs from the car companies and the other industries at work because of them.
