Oh boy1.?*&%$@!

Noticeable quotes from the article linked at the bottom.


In other words, the Fed has essentially bailed out private business enterprises that pay their employees exorbitant salaries while lowering the value of assets held by ordinary people (via higher inflation) and potentially increasing the taxes that Americans will need to pay during the years ahead to compensate for the worthless mortgage-backed assets now held by the Fed.


For example, Fannie Mae’s previous CEO was paid a $987,000 salary in 2007, a $2.3 million bonus, and a total compensation (including stock) of $11.6 million.


Pretty sad, isn’t it? Obama apparently thinks that money grows on trees, and McCain still doesn’t know the causes behind the nation’s credit crunch.

This is all from greed. The said thing is that something could have been done years ago but it wasn't. Nothing was done until Wallstreet started feeling the pinch and all those investors out there starting getting THEIR pockets dipped into. Now the American tax payers as a whole have to bail out these companies.

The government is bailing them out, why?

Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac have paid politicians in their pockets who blocked all legislation attempted to regulate them.
