Default Bailout (politics)

A guy walks into a party, and asks a woman "Would you have sex with me for a
million dollars?" She says sure. And of course he doesn't have a million
dollars. But the decision is made, they are going to get it on. Now, it's
just about deciding how much is the price.

I have that sense with the bailout for Freddy and Fannie. My sense is the
bailout is a done deal. The question is only the details. What's the end
result? The Fed, with all the power of the government, will take large
ammounts of my money, and give it to someone else. It's not roads, bridges,
or even pork barrel construction projects. Just a big transfer of money.

Lots really, ultimately he will have to pay more for all the services he
uses and will have less to spend, quite funny really.

Glad I am not a yank getting screwed over so royally by your own
government!!

Oh, but you are at least somewhat affected by good Brit? friend.
Since prices paid to finance commercial or retail "paper" are most
often traded internationally rather than limited strictly to the
country(s) requiring it, and since the economies of all the world's
countries no matter the government types are more and more
intertwined, what any one does, e.g., this week's efforts to get
the market for mortage securities back running again likely does
affect your ability to borrow by altering the cost and availability
of funds as the bucks/pounds flow to the highest bidder.

This is not at all to say that I either approve or disapprove what
my government appears to be doing, just that you aren't home free
quite yet.

Oh, and it is spelled "Yank". And, I believe you can probably tell
us some juicy tales of when either Labour or Conservatives have,
well, screwed over you folks.

Cheers!

Odd the Canadian economy is doing ok, it's just the Americans that are close
to sinking.

The yank market is known to be far more greedy than the canooks.

But you sell us Triton tools (as Sears Craftsman in addition to under
the Triton name) and Holden Commodores (as Pontiac G8s) and you used
to sell us lumber (two years ago jarrah and blue gum and silky oak
were easy to find in the US, now it's difficult and what there is
costs three times what it used to). If we can't afford those anymore
then it's not going to kill you but there's going to be some effect.

According to the CIA, the US is your second biggest import partner, only
just behind China.
