He and I both agree that absolutely nothing should have been done and the banks allowed to fail. Sure the market would have dropped, people would have lost their jobs and so on but all of that happened anyway and now we've inflated the dollar to boot. If congress simply did nothing we'd be a lot better off now, perhaps the market might have still fallen but we'd still have our trillions of dollars instead of all that money being tied up in banks that will still likely fail. We should do absolutely nothing and let the market fix itself. As is, I can see the Dow dropping below 5000 as the rate cuts, bailouts and federal reserve's continued practice of printing more and more money continues to bring us closer and closer to hyper inflation. <a href="http://mlnmm.com/trickle-up-economics-beats-bank-bailouts/" rel="nofollow">Bailouts beget bailouts.</a> I’m with Ron Paul on what should have been done.

Bailouts beget bailouts.

We do not have the free enterprise system in the USA Kim. Where is it? The bailout? Banning trade with countries we do not like? Our inflationary fiat currency? Social Security? Income taxes? All these items are anti-symptomatic of a free enterprise system. We're as communist as China is capitalist, it's all the same essential system just with a different flavor of icing on top.

We are spoiled soft and lazy. Just what we need to do create something else we get for free. Doesn't anyone remember the story of the little red hen. It was meant to be a lesson in life, as most of these tales are. Would we want to wait for a list and our turn to come up because someone is available to take care of removing our tumor? We have many of the best advances in healthcare in this country, due to the free enterprise system. Do you actually think that all of this is available in other countries. USA has one of the most advanced systems in the world. I would hate to see our advances undermined by a lack luster interest in advancement and a waiting list for care. Think about it.
