Senate Bailout Debate Liveblog

October 1st, 2008 Posted in General

Just settled in watching CSPAN and wanted to cover the bailout debate.

Watch it live - http://cspan.org/

5:42 - 42,000 people signed Sanders’ petition for his amendment. Another example of the left coming against this as well.

5:39 - Sanders is introducing an amendment that puts a 10% tax on anyone making more than half a million a year and a family that makes 1mil a year… Saying that should pay for the bailout. Hardcore populist move & rhetoric.

5:35 - Sanders: $35 billion dollars in bonuses from the 5 major investment firms in 2007
