Wasn't for the bailout.. but now that it hasn't happened, I'm scared.
So.. what next?
What options are there to stabalize?
I think it probably didn't pass because there was nothing in there that would really halt foreclosures..
So.. why didn't they put it in there? Why are they being so stubborn about it? Seems to me that if they would have included the ability for judgest to restructure mortgages for those facing foreclosure that enter bankruptcy.. would have been a reasonable and good step to stemming off massive foreclosures?
Anyone give me some insight and help me out here..
Look, all a bailout would do is delay the inevitable, so why not just get it over with and NOT spend that extra money needlessly? The economy needs time to stabilize itself and it's not going to do that if we keep slapping a bandaid on the sucking chest wound. Be afraid all you want but I'm going to sit back, stay calm, and not overextend myself financially like so many others.

I'm looking for people who really know and understand the markets to break it down for me..
Someone on another thread mentioned other options... etc.

Righty-o, because someone with no debt, no mortgage, no bankruptcy ever, a decent retirement fund, and investment property wouldn't understand how money works. Good on ya, lemme know how that works out for you.
I read the proposal but it didn't make a whole lot of sense.But i have my rifle ready for hunting season and the garden is ready for spring just in case.Some can sit and wait but i think i may take the ant and grasshopper approach.. If you do not know the story look it up it makes a lot of sense in lew of what is happening right now.

I meant no disrespect.
Your answer was more rhetoric than fact, that's all.
I was looking for a true analytical run down from someone that is an economist.
You can know how money works, without understanding what can or can not happen as a result of this .
Well, global stock market crash first. Then, people start putting their heads together to make this or that revision and get a bill back onto the calendar, hoping that this time there will be a few less complete-idiot votes. There aren't really a lot of other options on the table at this point...
You know having some extra food and water around has never hurt,if you do stockpile flour be careful if weevels get in it it would be ruined.Make sure it's sealed airtight i even use a small piece of dry ice when sealing it to get all the air out. Like i said before the foxfire series is the best to teach you.
