Riddle me this you financially gifted types

You're grasping at straws, at best. You still haven't provided any real proof. Don't just blindly follow rumors.



If the American public was as responsible as you make them out to be in your post, the country wouldn't be in this mess. Giving irresponsible people money will make things worse. Look what happens to poor people who win the lottery. They're poor again within the year.

Someone finally hit it on the nail. Now, I DO NOT support the bailouts at all. My question to y'all is this: Where's the blame on these people who were buying houses well beyond their means? If they were STUPID enough to buy into these things, then they deserved to fall. "Oooh, the big, bad banks! OH my goodness! Ooooh, the big, bad Realtors, Oooooh!" Get a bite of reality, please. Persuasive or not, these people are adults and they made poor decisions which forced them into poor positions in life. That's like saying that it's all the drug dealer's fault that a kid overdosed. The drug dealer may have been pressuring the kid, but the kid still bought it and the kid was negligent of his/her life. Same with the adults.
