Here you have the very rich selling their overpriced stock for less than it would bring a week ago. Big deal. And the Bill Gates of the world still own their millions of shares of stocks in profitable companies even though they may have lost 10's of millions on paper.

This rushed through bailout is a bad idea, heck, seems more flawed than the rushed through PATRIOT Act legislation.
Hey, I think that a bailout with LOTS AND LOTS of strings must happen. The day where corporate officers can get higher pay for running the companies into the ground has got to end.
 
You liberals are the ones pointing at the stock market and shouting "LOOK! THE ECONOMY! BOOHOO! WE NEED OBAMA..., SAVE US OH GREAT AND WONDERFUL CONGRESS!"

The republicans were in fact the ones that shot the rescue bill down, along with 7 democrats who are up for reelection and the rest that did vote against it.

When in fact you dont know it was in fact the democrats that started this to begin with. i have the links if you want

but yeah, i lost money too, and im not nearly rich, but i also had enough intelligence to move my money elsewhere wheni i seen it first starting.
 
It might not matter much for younger people, but to older people looking to retire it matter a ton. They probably lost a lot of money in their accounts these past few weeks and see it going down more every day, something they've saved and worked for all their lives.
 
right right we don't need to bail these people out the stock market will do fine on it's own.

They said 95% or more Americans are against this thing to pass but yet they are still going to go against the American people and still try to get it passed.
 
Not everyone who lost money in the stock market is rich.

Millions of middle class people, like me, lost money too.
 
most of the people that are affected are the average Americans with 401K's..... many who needed that money to retire and will never recover it.

the market looks to be tanking again today. It lost 1.2 trillion the other day.
 
For the same reason why when someone who has been in the public eye
.
Is on the 6 O'clock news when they lost their suit case when they went to pick it up at baggage at the air port
.
for anyone else to lose one who gives a crap
