At least there will be a few less bankers in the world Jesus.
Well, my dad's 401k was absolutely raped today. I had him invested in S&P 500 indexed funds, which lost approx 9% today :'(
Gold took a big drop today as well.
Someone on CNBC just said that a representative from Wisconsin said that constituents from his district opposed the bill by 100-1, which is why he voted against it, along with a folksy quote like "I work for the folks on Main St., not Wall St.". Don't these yokels realize that their 401k's and pensions are directly affected by stock prices?In b4, "I'm in mutual funds, not stocks". lol
The economy just killed off Blu-ray. Who's going to buy a PS3 now?

well this is the perfect time to be unemployed, i think
now that we have some distance (like an hour) from the failout, it really kind of signifies the end of the Republican party as a coherent force in American politics...right?A Republican President is unable to get the Republican members of the House to vote for a bipartisan, necessary financial proposal. McCain has somehow cast himself in opposition to Bush AND Congress, fighting his own party on two fronts. The result is total political gridlock and the largest one-day financial hit in our country's history. There's NO WAY to spin this as the Democrats' fault. They came out voting for the proposal!
Unbelievable. Wall Street and its backers created this mess and now they are going to clean up like bandits. . . .When you screw up in life, there is hell to pay. Each and every one of you reading this knows that basic lesson and has paid the consequences of your actions at some point. In this great democracy, we cannot let there be one set of rules for the vast majority of hard-working citizens, and another set of rules for the elite, who, when they screw up, are handed one more gift on a silver platter. No more! Not again!Yours,Michael MooreMMFlint@aol.comMichaelMoore.com
This thread makes no sense; the fundamentals of the economy are strong.
I keep reading how this bailout is stupid from some people, but honestly though--what the fuck else are we supposed to do?

Some people on the fringes of the political spectrum just can't wait until the reset button is hit so that they can rebuild society.
I have a birthday on the 16th. They better fix this shit soon.
Lou Dobbs said that the bailout failure is cause for a celebration for the American taxpayer!
He said we SHOWED those fat cats that we won't bail them out with our money!
