Why should the big guys get all the breaks? Government should bailout the little people, too.

...submit bad assets you'd like the government to take off your hands. And remember, when estimating the value of your 1997 limited edition Hanson single CD "MMMbop", it's not what you can sell these items for that matters, it's what you think they are worth. The fact that you think they are worth more than anyone will buy them for is what makes them bad assets.
If you post there, post it here, too! Some of (ok, many of) the contributions are tasteless and not, well, not intellectually sound, but there are some gems buried in there.
And on a more serious note, PublicMarkup.org allows public commentary on currently pending legislation. Read every word of the legislation for your very self, and you can comment on any section. This is very very cool - if for no other reason than you can read the legislation, rather than getting it filtered through some pundit or other.
Hat tip: Hit and Run

Date: September 24th, 2008 12:35 pm (UTC)I'd like the government to bail us out of all our debt - from the credit cards, to the mortgage, to the loan on the stores. Just wipe my slate clean, please. Kthx
