I didn't like the bailout when Bush did it, and I don't like it now.

All these trillions we are throwing at it are starting to scare me. That is a lot of money. If it doesn't work, it is going to hurt, it is going to hurt America bad. I don't see it working, but I sure hope I am wrong. For America's sake I hope my feelings are wrong.

We are in this mess because of those who lived beyond their means. They were not being responsible. And now we have the government living beyond its means? Seems like the wrong direction to go. Bring back responsibility. And when someone is not responsible, make them responsible for their actions. Bring back accountability.

I don’t like this new direction. I hope I am wrong. There is nothing I can do about it anyway. I just pray Obama knows what he is doing.

I still think the 800 billion Bush put towards the bailout (A big mistake IMO) and the whatever trillion (or trillions) Obama is throwing at it (Also a big mistake IMO) should have been given back to us taxpayers.

How much would we have gotten back if they gave 2 trillion back to the taxpayers? About 10K?

Imagine how we could stimulate the economy if we each got 10K back.
