Bailout proposal is a huge boondoggle

Forget the bailout!

The people behind it are some of the guilty people, either being grossly negligent or guilty of malfeasance.

Voters should vote out all the members of the executive branch (and those who seek office while proposing to "change" while accepting what has occurred) and the legislative branch.

Keep voting the incumbents out until we elect people who are capable of exercising real judgment.

Replace this $1 trillion (trillion!) dollar boondoggle with something important like fixing Social Security or generating medical insurance for the entire country.

Remember our system is supposed to reward those who take risks when they are successful and punish those who fail. The taxpayers don't need to take over toxic investments and pay the bills.
