Bail Outs

I have been watching the government hand outs. I find it interesting that bail outs for the hanks are going faster and with less question than the bail outs for the Big Three Auto Companies. What's the difference? I know the media is notorious for not giving a whole lot of detail but it seams like the automotive companies are the red haired step child that nobody on Capitol hill wants to help. I am not necessarily for the bailouts because it smells to much like socialism but can't say I am totally against it because of the damage that could be caused by these companies failures to the economy. I am also scared that these bail outs could cause more damage by keeping a float companies that should go under. It is frustrating and scary how little good information there is. All I really know is that I would not like to be the incoming president with the mess that there is to be taken care of.

This is a bit of post script for those of you who like to entertain conspiracy theories. I was not impressed with the Republican ticket this time around. There is a part of me that wonders without taking it too seriously if the Republicans wanted to loss this time around because they knew the mess that was coming.

Cap:
You make am interesting point in that the BEST way to make a person with no REAL executive experience look BAD in the White house would be to LET them win as this pending "perfect storm" of economic upheavel fast approaches.

Makes a pretty good miniseries too.
