I'd find out where you can get advice from this guy.He absolutely nails the economic situation we are in all the way back in 2006.Watch as he gets laughed at by other "experts" while they push investing all the banks that just failed.Its almost scary how right he was.

we are now paying more for gas than most places in the country because we bought in advance....

[BIRD33]

I wonder how that deal some auto makers were giving promising one years worth of gas at 1.99 is working out.

If we add in the Citi bailout, the total cost now exceeds $4.6165 trillion dollars. People have a hard time conceptualizing very large numbers, so let’s give this some context. The current Credit Crisis bailout is now the largest outlay In American history.

Jim Bianco of Bianco Research crunched the inflation adjusted numbers. The bailout has cost more than all of these big budget government expenditures – combined:

• Marshall Plan: Cost: $12.7 billion, Inflation Adjusted Cost: $115.3 billion
• Louisiana Purchase: Cost: $15 million, Inflation Adjusted Cost: $217 billion
• Race to the Moon: Cost: $36.4 billion, Inflation Adjusted Cost: $237 billion
• S&L Crisis: Cost: $153 billion, Inflation Adjusted Cost: $256 billion
• Korean War: Cost: $54 billion, Inflation Adjusted Cost: $454 billion
• The New Deal: Cost: $32 billion (Est), Inflation Adjusted Cost: $500 billion (Est)
• Invasion of Iraq: Cost: $551b, Inflation Adjusted Cost: $597 billion
• Vietnam War: Cost: $111 billion, Inflation Adjusted Cost: $698 billion
• NASA: Cost: $416.7 billion, Inflation Adjusted Cost: $851.2 billion

TOTAL: $3.92 trillion

TOTAL: $3.92 trillion

Or about $11,000 for every man woman and child in the country. They'd be able to conceptualize it if that bill fell on their welcome mat.

I'd pony up $11k if it would go away.

Edit: Make that $33k. Now it gets a little more interesting.

So, wait. If instead of spending all this money on "bailout" could we jus start killing men, women and children and bring the cost down like that?

We could make it like a nationwide paintball game.

And there's no guarantee that the way they're throwing the dough around will have the effect they think it will.

I'm in. How do we decide who gets it?

You can bet your ass a huge chunk of that money is going to end up in the pockets of some lawyers and good ol' boy circles.

I'd like to know how much of the Katrina money ended up in back pockets in New Orleans.

[Paddy]

If I was in their position I'd be lining my pockets. Human nature isn't taken into account often enough.

Well, think of it like this. The guys running these big banks and lending instutions are the ones that got us into this mess. Now we are giving them free money to help them bail themselves out of it. Imagine how that is going to end up.

[Flumper Barflusterbutt]

Well, Obama could have everyone pledge their souls to him and the ones that do get marked with a "666" and then we hunt people down that don't have that tattoo and......

I like the comment by Alan Mulally, Ford's CEO, when asked by Congress if he thought it was appropriate for him to consider taking a paycut on his $22 million as a rider to getting bailout money.

"I think I'm ok where I'm at."

I bet you do Alan.

I liked the Senator's comment when he said something like, "I'm a little troubled when a bunch of men fly into town on their corporate jets and come down here in fancy cars holding out a tin cup."

[Paddy]

They're not smart enough to know when to lay low.

You'd think they'd say "Ok guys, the jig ('sup Anhil8tor) is up, let's not do anything extravagant, like fancy corporate retreats or flying around in our jets for 6 months and we take a pass on our bonuses. Then, when we get the bailout dough and this scare blows over, it will be back to business as usual. Double bonuses next year!."
