Hi, clucere-- Thanks for the cite. Unfortunately, it's academic now.
I don't have the knowledge to evaluate his suggestions either, but I sure don't find his contention that not passing the bill won't "knock the economy into a tailspin" very convincing. He certainly doesn't provide much in the way of support for it. We just have to pray he's right. BTW, his objection that there won't be any oversight is outdated. The column was written five days ago; since then, a bunch of congressional oversight measures were added to the bill. But good for you for seeking out expert opinion on this. I just wish more of our congresscritters had done so rather than voting their gut because they were afraid they'd lose their seats if they didn't bow to their constituents' ill-informed opposition. This is my 50th for the week, so I'll see y'all later, assuming we're still all here! --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "clucere" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Judy, > Here's an article below by Jim Jubak on the 700 billion bailout. > He writes a regular column for MSN Money.
