  1. eh? how does giving banks access to the discount window directly benefit us w.r.t risk? By bailing out BSC because their clients are to important to fail sends the message you can do business with any unregulated scumbag.
  2. Isn't that the core of capitalism? Reward comes with Risk? BSC made tons of cash in the past decade because of risk. This bailout is privatized rewards and socialized risk. The Bear Sterns building alone is worth $1 billion. Morgan can make a killing on this.

    and thus we've established that once again Sexy Cocoa doesn't have a clue Han Chinese = want Chinese empire which they are head of Other ethnic subgroups = want right to their own culture and often autonomy(see Uighurs)

    Since western journalists aren't free to travel in Tibet and expressing anti-China sentiment is a crime it's rather difficult to get an accurate impression of the situation. China has shown it's true colors in it's reaction, expelling foreign tourists & journalists, censoring newscasts, blocking the internet (yahoo and google unavailable) and generally being its totalitarian self.

    other groups of Tibetans want autonomy as well.

  12. If someone else in guaranteeing the loans why not take any and every risk? Sure the execs lost cash this time around - the top 4 also made $120 million last year. Hell - average compensation was ~$300k for the 12k employees. LET THEM FUCKING RUST! I'm not sure why JPM did this aside from a long history of bailing out banks on behalf of the government. From what I've heard nobody really wants Bear Stearns business because it's currently shit (Bank America has already bought it's turd for the year)

    I believe it's meaning is "Bush Pioneer" Early on, much of my politicking was fueled by the desire for pioneering bush. exploring untrodden bush gets old. blazed paths are much more hospitable.
  14. It's amazing how much more polite they are when we are speaking of the subprime lenders as opposed to subprime borrowers. Typical - throw the little guys to the wolves; fellate the big guys.

    Thailand, China, India, and Singapore didn't do shit. Since they are the majority of the trading partners they count far more than us. The Western world is China's biggest market; we matter. America doesn't export.

    So subsidies are the solution?
  22. our freemarket friends are too busy making excuses for government bailouts of business
  23. Oh, and not to be forgotten: James E. Cayne, Chairman and former Chief Executive Officer of Bear Stearns, is a Bush Pioneer having raised at least $100,000 for Bush in the 2004 presidential election. comeon - where are our subprime bailout denouncers? bailouts are only bad if they are for poor people who make bad decisions and not rich people?

    I wasn't speaking about myself, dickhead. People in the bottom 50% are the ones who'll be fucked, and I'll bet Kevbone is somewhere in that group. You sound like the "rich Republicans" you so rail against. Congrats, hypocrite! oh, and if everyone actually tried to live close to their jobs, as some simplistic people suggest, that would actually be impossible No, they'd just sacrifice that yard they never venture into
