I honestly love reading posts such as yours, for they are very highly thought up, and packed full of high level NLP. Generally, although they may work on some of the people who visit this site, I am not one of them. Let me try to expose all of the holes in your post.Lifelong democrat? You seem to be implying that democrats are all good. Which is not true. Democrats are not all good, and they are not all evil. Therefore the only honest and good policy is to be independent, and support the good in both parties, and oppose the evil in all parties. By admitting to be a lifelong "democrat" you acknowledge that you will support democrats even if they are evil. I am independent, if you are good and honest, I will support you. if you are evil, i will attack you as i would a snake or scorpion.I very much like your usage of third party story. Extra points for making it unbelievable. " While speaking to the state economist a while ago at the governors re-election party, he very much questioned the reliability of the media's handling of this bailout. He refused to go on the record, as this is a very sensitive issue in his position, but he assured me, companies do not lose billions of dollars in only 90 days without prior warning."I also very much like the implication that "more" regulations need to be in place, to hold people accountable. Existing regulations are not being used. The existing regulators have failed their jobs. First, the existing regulators who are corrupt must be removed. Then accountability may start to happen. Hold the regulators accountable and then you will see accountability. Every CEO whose company went bankrupt needs to be in prison.I am impressed how you so discreetly insert an attack on John McCain, I guess you wanted to imply that even if Obama is a horrible president, and a stooge of the banks, that obama is somehow better than someone who owns more than one house? I own two houses btw, I know where they are because real estate is more safe than buying stock from wamu, or citigroup.You claim to support a new party of the people, for the people? but then you want the democrats and republicans to stop fighting?The democratic party and republican party are entirely corrupt. Very much like in pro wrestling, their "fighting" is staged and carefully orchestrated. The media plays along for the ratings. You need only look behind the curtain to find the puppet master pulling the strings of both parties. Once you realize the fed and the owners of the fed are the ones pulling the strings then, the puppet show becomes entirely transparent.God bless Ron Paul, and I hope Ron Paul has some big scissors, because the strings of the fed are very long and numerous. Mr Rich Obermayer…

I however agree with Sen Paul. I also have some very good friend who works at the Fed in DC. Recently at a family function I was able to question him on some of the actions both the fed and the treasury have taken in past months. I am not saying I agree with all the things they have done but a was assured that what was done WAS in the best intrest of our country and although much of it leaves a bad taste in my mouth, I now feel that people need to be held accountable and regulations need to be put in place to keep this from happeneing again. The problem is that the people in this country who are not sure how many houses they own, or where they, are not affected by what has happened in the past few months. They have enough to pay off peolple on both side of politics so their intrests will always looked after. Now more than ever this country needs a new political party. Of the People, by the people, and for the people. Its time for Dems and Republicans to stop fighting each other and focus on the real cause of our problems. GREED.

I've written my congressman and senator to support this bill.. I don't think I'm doing any harm by asking people to write nancy pelosi to have a vote count.

Yet claims you make about Pelosi trying to keep the from coming up in the house will not help get other Democrats as well as Independants on board. When pepole of different backgrounds come to agree on something like this, they need to work together. Try to focus on the idea you want to advance and not blame the people you feel are responsible. Remember, the people who control this country want us to disagree and fight. The only chance we have of taking back our country is working together.

Louie, here is a pertinent quote and the blatant conclusion from the article you posted which intimates de-regulation (the “Costly Error” reference below) caused this, and suggests that reforms (i.e. government intervention) is needed.

“Economist Albert Wojnilower warned at the time: “Freeing the thrift and mortgage markets from government subsidy and guarantee is like freeing the family pets by abandoning them in the jungle.”
His sardonic prediction was swiftly realized.”

“It helps explain why contemporary Democrats are so reluctant to enact more serious reforms, like capping interests or restoring the usury law. That would require them to clean up the mess they made 30 years ago and finally acknowledge their costly errors.”

Glad I could assist you in actually understanding the article, you’ll find it useful one day once you read past the headline.
