I was down because of the way this market is going, then I read that and got depressed. Now I can feel it morphing into anger. Better quit posting before it becomes an all out rant.

i'll join your anger

but if the feds were stupid enough to give them tax dollars with no limitations, may as well have a party

i place blame on the government for having given them the "bail out" money in the first place

over 100 billion in pork in the bailout plan... aside from the 700 that is the bailout... 900 billion at the repo window.... trillions in iraq... roads falling apart and no health care, and we are whining about 440k? <mumbling something about the forest for the trees>

long fear; short hope. best wishes..

I don’t think it is bitching about 440K, it is bitching that the 440K is indicative of how out tax money is wasted across the board.

That’s the real problem, or the forrest if you will...or is it the trees...or maybe a leaf...it should all be criminal!

It's just the principle of the thing. They should have all gathered for a group picture each one holding out a hand with the middle finger up...:thefinger:...
and then they could have sent the picture to all of their shareholders.

Basically, that is exactly what they did. Great sign of fiduciary responsibility.

Right on HF! Sad that as a treasurer of a small time 501c3 that rescued Siberian Huskies I exhibited more fiduciary responsibility then these clowns.
