Its not, all this crap you hear about, "to help the economy" is just what the government wants us to believe, just like they do with everything else. Always realize, whatever the government tells us, theres always something else behind it. In this case its really just to help Wallstreet and make sure they dont lose money. Everybody is going to make money off of this and were going to have to pay for it.
Any bailout must pinch the people who have run the companies now needing rescue, along with their shareholders, addressing the unseemly reality that executives have amassed beach houses and fat bank accounts while taxpayers are now stuck with the bill for their reckless ways.
If you haven't noticed, there trying to get this money quick so the american people dont realize whats going on. These companies and banks should crash and burn for there mistakes, but this wont happen cause the government would be affected by it and lose money. Thats why if any normal citizens would be in the same situation, they wouldnt care, cause its no interest to them or wallstreet.

I had the same question, its rather crazy if you ask me, if you dont create jobs then the decline in jobs begin to keep climbing, those making those who are already on the urge of losing their house, start to lose their house, those who some how get a new loan with the new banks those being the 750 credit scores will have to hope that they themselves continue to keep their job, insurance companies are taking some major loss, some of the highest ever, with katrina, ike, storms across the midwest, AIG taking a dump etc, your biggest insurance companies are either laying off workers, or flattening the raises until further notice, this being me one of them as I work as a underwriter for one of the big insurance companies you see on tv, we are in a soft market and continue to look at each year as a loss, our insured have dropped due to lack of payment due to them having to make other bills and would rather drive illegal and make it to work then to starve or not afford gas in their car, the investment the government is doing is in the best interest of OTHER countries and not ours as far as i can see |

Hey, if the stock market crashes what do you think happens to everyone 401k plan? They will be worth about ZERO dollars. Also, where would you got for a home/car loan? Or even a credit card? Everyone will be a loser if they crash and burn. Period.
So, let them crash and burn, as we, the citizens, will too. Who cares. Right? Let me guess if you are opposed to the bail out, you are also complaining about gas stations price gouging? When the real problem is not that the supply is down, as it stays the same, but the problem is demand has shot up, due to people getting scared of a shortage so everyone goes and fills up their tank at once.
It's simple economics people, open a book. I do believe we should govern wall streets & corporations with more restricting laws and guidelines, but then again that would be on the boarder of socialism. Which everyone freaks out about when the word is brought up. Yet, the majority of the Senate (both dems and repubs) agrees we should restrict the pay of CEO's. On the same token all the republications smash Obama for having socialist ideas. Double standard anyone?
Also, Federal Reserve Chairman, Ben Bernanke, has a Ph.D. in economics. He is a very well educated man, and is persuaded by no man. Do you think he would put his career on the line and lie to the American public? This man lives and breathes economics. He has written books on the Great Depression, so tell me do you honestly think he wants to be responsible for creating another depression or do you think he wants to be responsible for preventing one? |

I just wanted to point out that a major factor in this debacle is due to the deregulation of wall street, which began in the 1980s under Regan and continued with Bush Sr, and Clinton.
At first, economists supported deregulation because the economy was 'sound,' but it is also crisis prone.
La voila.
This bail out would open up credit, theoretically, because this country runs off of the promise of taking 'money' to make money. |

To help you understand. The bank "feeds" your employer through financing. Your employer feeds you through paychecks.
If there is no big fat cat on wall street to keep the finances going, we all will be looking at the next Great Depression. The first depression in the 30's can happen again through similar actions.
You are not the only one who sees a problem with this bailout, but those who are asking for this money are saying we are on the precipice and will plunge into an abyss of world wide economic disaster. |

if we didn't bail out these company's united states would have lost there $$$ so it was a good thing and it was a loan so they will repay it some day if they were worried about it they would just print the money an give it back to it |
