Oh how I love all you 'wise' presumably conservative folks.

I think a few of you need to read history of the Great Depression and what steps caused it to get far worse and which ones caused it to eventually recover and put US into an eventually massive growth.

It is precisely because some of us know our history and economics that we are scolding our government for their actions.

 

Let the market be a market.   It's a perpetual motion machine with self healing properties provided you get the hell out of the way and let it work. 

Isn't it that kind of "self regulating market" attitude that created the crisis ?

Self-healing.... yeaah that is easy to say...

 

Paying people morgtgages seems a bit extreme anyway...
