Why bail out Wall Street when they created the problem why are they more important than regular taxpaying citizens.

The head of corporations will if they could outsource all jobs and the only jobs left will be Wall Street traders so will the rest of the people just becomes slaves to the Corporations, I think this is why Unions came into being, these greedy people don’t want to play fair they just want to win and after winning don’t want to pay any taxes.

America has to wake up, there is a war going on costing a lot of money, then Bush wants to bail out Wall Street.

The cream rises to the top, if this country fails, the rich will just take their marbles elswhere.

Europe’s blue bloods have intermarried for centures because money rules, this country is no longer a democracy, Inother words the greedy will always take from the needy, whenever they can.

DO NOT VOTE REPUBLICIAN THEIR STRIPES HAVE NOT CHANGED SINCE R. RAGAN.

Did we have any reason to expect otherwise?
