Paulson's plan to buy devalued securities from banks would drive U.S. government debt above 70 percent of gross domestic product, the most since 1954, based on economist estimates and details of the bailout. from http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=aiqcgCwMmXIs&refer=home...

What was Paulson doing during subprime time? He was raping America. Now he's getting a pardon for him and all his partners in crime.

Another consideration: If Bank A sells you these products and they don't have in the prospectus who the issuer is, and Bank A looses lots of money, what's to keep them from telling everyone that some now bankrupt entity is (was) the issuer? Go get 'em!

Thank you for the clarification. That can go much farther then the $700B. Time for some "write ups" maybe? Keep in mind what we were reading is only a draft, not a law.

Where do you read "ability to suspend"? I read "shall conduct a study" and "shall report to congress at the end of the 90 day period..." Nothing about suspension.

If there are in fact $14T in mortgages and $165T in paper on those mortgages, what the hell does $700B do for the equation? Not very much. There's a whole lot more to it then "you might not be able to get a car loan if we don't do this" as idiots inside the beltway want us to believe. I...

OP asked where to buy gold, not whether it's a good investment. Try kitco in new york. they're online at www.kitco.com I know many who use them regularly to take posession. They also have Buffalo's if that's what you want. Maples, Krug's, Eagles, pretty much anything you want.

Why should we vote Republican? So we can take the leverage to 80:1? And next time pay $700Trillion?

Many do (did) want it done BMO Sunday night but there are those who said they will not be held to a strict time deadline.

You'd think AP would know that midnight is the following day, not the previous day. What they are calling "midnight Saturday" is really "midnight Sunday." The last time (tick) of any day is 11:59:59. The first time (tick) of the following day is 12:00:00 (midnight).

I'm sure much of the propaganda on Youtube is coming from campaign workers. Just like the spam e-mail. That stuff can't be coming from objective persons with no interest.

I like Ron Paul as well; he thinks outside the box and is not afraid to let his opinion known. It's too bad he did not make it farther in the election. I read the article you cited; I don't believe much or any of what I read. Is the Federal Reserve innocent in this mess? Absolutely not...

That's complete bullshit. The problem comes from going from 7:1 leverage to 40:1 leverage. Who did this? The very names who have made headlines, the republicans, Hank Paulson. There is $14T in mortgages and $165T in paper on those mortgages. Hank Paulson as CEO of GS built the model for...

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Congressional leaders and the Bush administration have reached a tentative deal on a bailout of imperiled financial markets that could cost taxpayers hundreds of billions of dollars. The House could vote on it Sunday and the Senate on Monday. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi...

Attorney in the same state as the bank headquarters. Any action would probably be class action. Hopefully someone will give you an initial consultation pro bono.

Last night I came home from a nightclub circa 5am-ish and fired up a pc to see if there was any news on the communist bailout. I could not connect so I called my comcastic support desk. They told me everything is out and they will credit me for the day blah blah blah. I went to sleep. I woke...

The way I understand RAM, the timing given in the specs is the fastest timing the manufacturer is guaranteeing that product to run stable at. We all know of people overclocking (speeding up) the ram, cpu, etc. I agree with the previous poster that if you set the timing in the BIOS to the...

That's interesting Piezoe. That was before my time. I learned a lot from reading it. Thanks!

Edit: I should have titled this "Best Markets vs. Best Economy" When was the best market during your lifetime? (during what years) When was the best economy during your lifetime? (during what years) As this venue is traders, I can only guess a better market is more coveted by...
