Short Answer YES!
It is time for our members of congress to get some backbone and to consider the history of this nation while voting NO BAILOUT!
The fear tactic are not much different than those used to pass the un patriot act and it is rather revolting.
Perhaps our members of congress should read up on history to understand that before the crash in 1929 we were bailing out banks and the crash came anyways. We tried to help banks who had made bad investments and it did nothing more than cost us money. Yes, it slowed down the progression of the crash but it happened anyways.
I say let them fail. If members of congress wanted to help the economy perhaps they should consider getting rid of the federal reserve and only print money backed by silver or gold.
If congress wants to help out home owners, provide them with low interest loans and use a reputable company to do it.
Americans need to be on the phone and tell their congress critters to VOTE NO on the BAILOUT, then give your senators a call and tell them the same thing. don't just send emails, call and overwhelm their staff with phone calls. Let them know you don't want your weak dollar to become totally worthless because that is what will happen when they print up nearly a trillion more.
