I hope you are correct.

Not saying I'm correct. I'm just not convinced. And I don't just take anyone's word for anything.

I don't see this has much to do with someone in your or my position or even someone who's poor's position.

SU is arguing that there are winners and losers in the financial sector, and people like Cali are arguing that there are only losers, and as a result they will drag everyone else down with them.

We shall see.

At the very least, I expect companies will behave better if they believe a bailout is NOT coming.
