Ceteris, what is your conflict of interest? How will you benefit from a bailout? I want specifics.

Having a difficult time understanding your eagerness to bring on bad economic times. Do you benefit from mass hysteria? |

BTW, I'm not surprised most econ profs want the bail out to occur. Especially at places like Cal.

Address the issues rather than dispensing your condescending bullshit counselor. Finance undergrad (BYU), MBA (Emory), work at a mid-size consulting firm with focus on middle market business. Where did you study market economics?

It looks to me like you have a heretofore undisclosed interest in the bailout. Your narrowing the scope of Waters' question was sort of clever.

I don't know where to find the article, but I heard of a middle management sort, who participated in the bailout bill, that is purported to have said in response to the question how the 700 billion dollar number was arrived at, "well we just picked a really big number." IOW, there is no substantial support for the dumb number, because the true thinking is, if they're wrong, they'll just go back to the taxpayer. I hope the morons who did this are prosecuted, and pursued to the ends of the earth.
