OK Mr. Goolsbee, you can tone down the drama a little, it’s OK.

It all starts/ends with Government reform, not business reform. What hole did this guy get pulled out of? He has a face for radio…

TARP was never “necessary” unless you work for Goldman Sachs… Obama needed TARP worse than anyone. If he didn’t threaten martial law to get it, his ACORN/Racist threats would have come out.

Why don’t they just have credit card companies follow the laws that are already on the books? Hey, now thats a novel thought. Oh, all are in the pockets of Obama…

Financial institutions are robbing dumb or desparate Americans out of their money, while a corrupt government (which oversaw the creation of this depression) is going to “come to the rescue” by giving birth to yet another government agency. This results in a growing gov’t and a removal of more and more of your freedoms.

Immorality and stupidity created these conditions in part. If we had morality, accountability and intelligence in abundance we would not be facing imminent socialism.

Repubicans caused the financial crash, plain and simple!!!! It began with bush, and a repubican congress!!!! I get so sick of the lies that repubs spread!!! Do yourself a favor. Conservatism is a bad philosophy, vote out ALL republicans during the next election!!!!. Then vote for and elect good Democrats, like those we have in office right now!!!! And dont forget to vote for Obama for 4 more years, so he can continue to fix this country so it is inhabitable for all Black Americans!!!!

Yes, I support the bill. Similar measures have been taken by the labor government of my home counry norway. Stablilzing the economy by setting up and enforcing rules for the finance market is a matter of necessity rather than a left-right political issue. I bet quite a few conservatives in capitol hill will support this bill.

So you describe how government intervention has caused the credit crisis so thats why we needed….more government intervention. I propose that a small group of lawyers that can win a popularity contest are NOT and will NEVER be qualified to run the entire economy. Allow us the people to control our own money. Pass laws only to enforce contracts etc.
