Reckless Private Debt accumulation got us into this mess, how the heck does reckless public debt accumulation get us out?

I certainly hope Congress does reject the pork stimulus. $100 million for family planning? Someone should ask Ditzie Pelosi just what kind of people need more gummint rubbers (just to see her squirm).
So we’re bailing out the condom industry; billions more to be poured down the government school rathole; more money for art no one would spend their own money on; more money thrown at the like of Citibank (which didn’t even have the decency to buy American when adding a new jet to its fleet ).
I think there are better ways of dealing with this (e.g. the RTC from the S&L days) as well as some deserved bankruptcies.
The first $350 billion of TARP money could have been spent sending $1000 to each man/woman/child in the country and would have done more good.
Bad policy on the part of the Bush Administration, Congress, and the Fed have brought us to this point. We’re going to suffer one way or the other. We just have to hope (Hope!) that the government cure doesn’t finish off the patient.

I suppose that means the government isn’t going to bail out the pr0n industry?

Why does he need to? Over the next four years, we’re all going to be f—-d anyway.
