The fix is in.  In an incredibly bold move, the fed will bail out everyone.  Once again the little guy gets the screw job.  If there was any doubt before that the Bush administration didn’t truly believe in Capitalism let the skeptics take note.  This is Socialism for rich people.  It is the most shameful, dumb headed, and wrong action they could have taken.  Once again the Bush administration has paid off their croanies and pissed on everyone else.

Behold how quickly the goverment swoops in to assist the financial companies.  How much have they spent?  Some estimates place the number at $1 trillion.  Have you ever heard of such a silly rule as: no short selling of ONE kind of stock?  NO SHORT SELLING?!  WTF?!  That is so fundamentally flawed its hard to imagine investors ever having confidence in the financial system again.
