We ain't getting any of that money. Washington bails out all these huge companies that (for the most part) put themselves in the position they are in today, but John and Jane Doe tax payer has to foot the bills for these companies.

I know several people that have lost homes, but I don't know if I should feel bad for them. The people I know made very poor financial decisions..., bought houses they really couldn't afford, lived outside of their means, and are now paying the price for that. What burns me is these large companies that make the same mistake get bailed out by the governement, and you get tons of people like my wife and I who pay our bills, are never late on any payments, and make good financial decisions.., now have to watch our tax dollars go to bail others out.

If all these jerks who drove these companies into the ground get bail-outs..., then damn-it I want another stim. check! They're getting rewarded for bad decisions.. Why can't those of us who pay our bills get another stim. check????
