Damn, make one negative post on the Lehman Brothers pinky board and the penny kids go nuts. Haha. Too bad we've been playing the puts for 6 months. :)

That's why I think the banks should have to pay a contribution at some point in the future rather than being allowed to off-load their debt for free on the taxpayer.

Imagine how much it must suck to be foreclosed on and lose your house and then have your taxes go in part to paying off the mess. A fierce double hit if ever I heard of one.

Based on these bailouts - America has just become a socialist society...Too bad profits are never ever socialized only failures...Why arent folks going to jail or even being put on death row...how can no crimes be charged for this....It is outrageous....
