1. I wish I could add something, but I have another question.....
If these bailouts doom is it a good thing for the taxpayer, or is it a lose/lose for us?

2. I'm not an economist,
but my gut is telling me this is the wrong way to do things. They are staving off the inevitable.

3. I thought about that too though haven't looked at any charts.
Perhaps as the details come to light there will be a big public reaction, or there may need to be some changes for other reasons. Maybe something is revealed through the ongoing investigations of these companies that would alter it....or maybe it will become clear that it is not having the desired effect on the economy. It is interesting that both the Federal Reserve AND Bernanke's charts are strongly affected by transiting Pluto, and the Saturn/Uranus opposition respectively among other things. Nolle, Merriman and other astrologers have suggested this might well be the end of the Federal Reserve. The house of cards we call our financial system will go through dramatic change.

4. Kucinich said he didn't think the votes were there to pass it.

5. Mercury Retro is all about communication snafus and delays
I don't think anything significant (should) will get passed until it goes direct. This is not a time to sign any contracts.

7. Since Wall Street is in charge here...
I think that the lies about how the bailout is necessary for Main St. are the first indication of Mercury retrograde here.

Things get done when Mercury is retrograde. The bailout is not doomed to fail. But more often than not there is confusion or misrepresentation going on under this transit. It would be nice if this particular Mercury retrograde brought about a reversal of Wall Street's plans to bilk the taxpayers.

Bill

8. Let's put it this way: it'll definitely be re-"tweaked" later.

9. Yes, Obama made a wonderful speech on the floor

Whenever he speaks --- it takes my breath away.


YEes, he said this bill will move us in the direction of correcting our fiscal problems. There will be more to be done in the days, weeks months ahead.

10. I had not thought about this!
Yikes. It's bad enough without thinking it might be repeated again and again down the line.

I'd definitely like to hear from more experts on this question.
