So, the bailout bill passed the house, has been signed into law, and the stock market responds by......

dropping 157 points.

I listened to it on CSPAN and all they did in the house was talk about how this wouldn't work, but they had to do it anyway....

Maybe it will help the credit markets not be so afraid... who knows...

Smartdavis · 10-03-2008, 03:42 PM

be afraid...be very afraid....the credit markets need people with credit, and you can't get credit when you don't have a job...and you can't create jobs if there isn't any credit....so how does this all work again?

the only solution I can think of is to rob the rich and give give to the poor. I call it "The Robin Hood Plan".....I think congress invented it.

I did my part on my last trip to Kalifornia by purchasing a Navigation system and install for my smart. $124 in sales tax!! Every trip, I'm contributing to their bail out!!

The whole thing cold be solved easily by the feds, elimante our old, inefficiant tax system and put a fedreal sales tax on stuff. That way, you cant cheat like today, the people that have the most $ spend the most $, therfore, they pay the most taxes.

No income tax, no complicated tax code, no loop holes, no IRS workers on the dool, no tax preperation money to spend blah, blah, blah
