I'm more concerned about how each administration plans to pay down the deficit (I mean really, who gives a fuck about -1.8% vs -1.4%! - and I'd be glad to pay more taxes if it means we owe less to China and our other foreign creditors) but since we're looking down the barrel of a $700m "bailout" I think the whole argument is now moot.

We're all fuxored no matter what.

I couldn't agree more! This bailout fiasco has thrown everything to the wind.

It's amazing what can change in a week... (I'm a WaMu customer, I wonder if I'll have trouble withdrawing cash to pay my rent next Wednesday?).

DOH! You mean you're a JP Morgan Chase customer. My proposed new ad campaign:
"What's in your wallet?"
"Oh, nothing."

I guess the good news is that JPMC actually have some capital left, so your bank won't be boarded up now. WaMu was done.

Good times.
