Why is there a lack of interest by hedge funds and other private investors to participate in its plan for buying up banks' bad assets? With congress bashing and taxing hedge funds and other private investors, and the government wonders why there's lack of participation in the bad asset program, is example of how dumb they are in Washington. Let it be clearly known that hedge funds and other private investors didn't create this crisis. The "too big fail" banks were mega mergers that were approve by Washington. The "sub prime mortgage" was forced upon the banks because Washington push for home ownership for low income families. Let be clear, no one is better at the blame game than a politician. Question: In this epic crisis has congress taken a pay cut? No.

YES THEY DID..............I have a small business and the only thing he wants to do for me is give me a break on taking a loan. How about a tax break to hire employees so I can keep jobs in the U.S. Hey, I could use billions to better my business..I WORK everyday, 85 hours a week, I PAY taxes on time:o) Help the everyday businesses that are paying these bonuses back..help us tax payers...NO MORE BONUSES..NO MORE TAXES..I was always told...everyone can be replaced!

Muni bond yields are changing daily but your site pays no attention to the forces at play. Furthermore, there is a significant lack of articles relating to the dynamics of this market. This is a shame since munis arre the one type of investment with a reasonablly safe return in the heart of a financial malstrom.

Subprime lending is obliterated !We need more morons in the white house and congress!! Gifted orators!! Not of any use- just the talk!!!Madoff should be rewarded for proving how ffragile USA is in no matter what it is!! 9/11 proved beyond reasonable doubt that USA is not a super -power in intelligence!! Corrupted officials at both whitehouse and congress, and yet American people are so dumb that they keep appointing them to office,,so here lies the issue..who vted them in??? Answer is your stupid Americans!!Madoff is put to jail to stop the bureaucrats being blamed as they closed their eyes for any moron with utmost stupidity to crack tke system of balances and checks...face it what was SEC doing whilst all these billion dollar scandals took place??Nancy Pulosi dances at La Rassa party with illegals giving them a n

BURN AIG IN THE HELLHOLE IT CAME FROM AND SEND SOME HEADS TO JAIL!

AIG IS OUR FRIEND...Other companies that need federal bailouts should use the AIG (AIG) approach. It told the the government that if it did not get a large slug of money the global financial system would burn to the ground. Impressive threat, and all the more powerful because it is probably true. According to Bloomberg, “American International Group Inc. appealed for its fourth U.S. rescue by telling regulators the company’s collapse could cripple money-market funds, force European banks to raise capital, cause competing life insurers to fail and wipe out the taxpayers’ stake in the firm. That almost certainly means that AIG will get more money if it runs low on capital. It is also a illustration of the sword that every major financial firm in the US holds. These banks and insurers have a labyrinth of relationships that span the world. If they are forced to renege on significant obligations, the ripple effect would cause central banks outside American to put hundreds of billion o

Stop bailing the wreckless banks and insurance companies like AIG. Instead help the private sector create and fund new ones with new management that uses their sensibilities in running their businesses. AIG trades at 51-cents with a dividend yield of 141% and a loss of 20-dollars per share. Do YOU see anything wrong here? This company shoujld be OUT OF BUSINESS....not being supported by the hard earned dollars of the American taxpayer.
