gandalf, I totally agree with you that it’s not black and white and that there are a lot of innocent bystander getting hit. But instead of bailing out these big banks, why not just funnel the $ into the credit unions and local banks to make sure innocent bystanders are still getting their credit and let these big bank fail if they screwed up? I’m no economist, so I don’t know what would be the best solution for this, but I just feel like the government are constantly trying to stop a bubble from crashing, which then cause an even bigger bubble. If Greenspan would have let the .com crash, we probably wouldn’t have the RE/credit bubble we have today.

Good point. Ron Paul does seem to have the most economically sensible policies. It’s too bad he’s not on the ballot in California. I may yet vote for Bob Barr as Ron Paul’s proxy. I will be voting against Democratic Representative Susan A. Davis because she voted for the bailout.

BTW, I’m not voting for Ron Paul, since like you said, he’s not on the ballot. But I will be voting for Bob Barr.
