I am writing on the $700 billion dollar bail out Sec. Paulson wants Congress to Quickly pass, again without any regulation or oversight! "How did we get here? All of a sudden we are facing Armageddon in our financial systems, one day they tell us our economy is fundamentally sound and the next day we're here. King Paulson is asking for the power to make decisions that would be unchecked by Congress, the ability to buy whatever he wants. He is now saying foreign banks should be able to use this program. American tax money we don't have. If this really affects global financial systems, why isn't the rest of the world putting up their balance sheets? Why does American continue trying to do everything by it self? Here we go again, what does this sound like? This sounds like 2001 and 2002 all over again, a time when the Congress gave the President broad powers to fight the war on terrorism, powers that they couldn't get back. WE SHOULD BE VERY CAREFUL!

One of the reasons our government has been free of major problems is the checks and balances designed to ensure major crises are well thought out. Look at the major events of the 20th century, in World War I, President Wilson realized our nation couldn't avoid the war but he made sure that he got the American people behind him, convinced them they should sacrifice for the greater good. In World War II we had the same thing, however, after 9/11 the president told the people they shouldn't change their way of life, he told them they should go shopping. Trillions of dollars have been sent to Iraq and now Americans cannot afford the gas for their cars and the mortgage on their homes. Under this administration, we continue to find our nation in crises, we continue reacting instead of acting, and now they are asking for more unchecked powers, WE MUST BE VERY VERY CAREFUL."

Due to no regulation and short certificate buying, no one knows what loan belongs to who and they may never know. How can that be? It sounds fishy and criminal, and now corporations who are suffering a metl down want to save their own hides on the backs of the American people. We cannot allow this to happen to us again and again -- corporations first, people never. This time it must be people first!

We cannot allow ourselves to be pushed into this decesion based on fear and scare tactics. We must carefully and thoughtfully try to find our way out that will benefit the people this time and not just the corporations, who are only trying to save their wealth, their stocks, their homes, cars, and their Country Club First, way of life.

Trickle down economics cannot work because it is against the laws of nature. In nature we start/build from the bottom up, etc. a plant, a tree, a child. And when we build homes or cars we start from the bottom and expand up or outwards and that is how we should model our business dealings. We cannot work against nature's wisdom and intelligence by hoping things will trickle down. It is just not sensible. We have an intelligent design through nature and we should use her model not man's greed. It is very hard for me to trust the people who got us into this mess to somehow now be able to get us out of this mess. That too does not make sense! We must contact our Congressman and Senators and tell them NOT SO FAST!

"Rule one: Rush the decision. Time the game to fall in the week before Congress is set to adjourn and just 6 weeks before an historic election so your opponents will be preoccupied, pressured, distracted, and in a hurry.

Rule two: Disarm the public through fear. Warn that the entire global financial system will collapse and the world will fall into another Great Depression. Control the media enough to ensure that the public will not notice this. Bailout will indebt them for generations, taking from them trillions of dollars they earned and deserve to keep.

Rule three: Control the playing field and set the rules. Hide from the public and most of the Congress just who is arranging this deal. Communicate with the public through leaks to media insiders. Limit any open congressional hearings. Communicate with Congress via private teleconferencing calls. Heighten political anxiety by contacting each political party separately. Treat Members of Congress condescendingly, telling them that the matter is so complex that they must rely on those few insiders who really do know what's going on!"
