But nooooo, Geithner and Larry Summers know better! I mean, just look at Lithuania, Summers managed to double the suicide rate and nearly cause the country to vote the Communists back into power with his financial genius. What could possibly go wrong?

Yes, they should nationalize some of the banks, and they should definitely nationalize this piece of crap. Either that, or STOP GIVING THEM MONEY! I don't mind the stimulus money, and I think we should be doing more there, but I'm sick to death of hearing about these pricks doing this crap. Just investigate them already and throw their asses in jail. That's where they should be.

Oh, and while we're at it, let's look at Countrywide. A lot of people like to blame Freddie and Fannie, but the subprime mortgages started with Countrywide and companies like that. Now they're cashing in on their mistakes. Really, can it get any worse?

What's that about Larry Summers? You got a link where I can read about it?
