Dear USA - accept the bailout

[HEyHEY]

Sincerely,

A concerned Canadian who knows this shit will seep over the border quickly.

1. Then why doesn't Canada bail them out if it's so important?

Seriously.

[Zynx]

2. They don't have the resources. The assets at risk are nearly as large as the Canadian economy.

Stop with all of this knee-jerk Lou Dobbs populist nonsense and study the damn issue.

[dailykoff]

3. Then I guess we shouldn't have deregulated them.

Sorry, that's the breaks.

[HEyHEY]

7. Repeat that to yourself whilst drinking ditchwater and urine and scrounging for food

[endthewar]

22. Oh Noes!!!!!!!

:nuke: :hide: :nuke:

:eyes:

[HEyHEY]

Our country didn't fuck up the system - yours did

We kept ours regulated

[dailykoff]

6. If you're so worried about saving your canadian bacon

put out.

[HEyHEY]

10. Honestly, what you're saying is fuckign stupid as if I have that power

[Beregond2]

5. What are you, five years old?

[dailykoff]

9. Your powers of persuasion are underwhelming. (n/t)

[HEyHEY]

11. As is your intellect

[jpgray]

8. Do you hear yourself? Since when is belligerent parochialism a liberal trait?

[dailykoff]

12. Oh brother. Now bailing out Goldman Sachs is a humanist virtue.

You really need to turn off the TV now and again.

[HEyHEY]

13. Methinks we have a projectionist

[Dark]

4. Amen.

n/t

[Neshanic]

14. I think we should let the chips fall where they may.

[HEyHEY]

15. Doesn't worry you?

[Fumesucker]

23. No offense..

But the bail out is a very sensitive issue for non wealthy American taxpayers right now..

This is an outright kick in the balls to every non wealthy American.

We know the system is being gamed and it's hard to be completely rational and cold about this.

[Shanti Mama]

21. My knee jerk reaction is this but

my more considered conclusion is that we do need to protect ourselves from the fallout of a real financial crisis. Better to mitigate the consequences in a reasonable and fair way than to experience a real depression.

Just my humble opinion.

[Fleshdancer]

16. The global repercussions worry me too

It's one thing to be greedy and self implode because of it when it doesn't affect others, but our economic problems really do have a global impact. We knew that when we accepted the global superpower role.

I wish I was done apologizing for Bush, but it looks like his actions will be with us for many years.

[nadinbrzezinski]

17. Thankfully according to the USA today poll

MOST Americans are not this knee jerk libertarian crap

Yes, I feel I came through the looking glass

I hope the adults take charge soon.

(And canada is less ignorant than many muricans,,, calling congress I had a sense of WHO　ＨＩＲＥＳ　ｔｈｅｓｅ　ｐｅｏｐｌｅ？）

19. thankfully you are NOT one of the people in charge

[Fleshdancer]

20. I really don't see how "fuck off" contributes to the conversation

Do you deny that America's actions have a global impact?

[Double T]

24. Never. Our criminally insane political and financial 'leaders' need to be STOPPED!!

The blank checkbook is off the table, PERIOD!

[bridgit]

25. Taking this opportunity to thank Canada for the manipulator arm on the shuttle...

Always thought it was way cool!

[LiberalAndProud]

26. Care to help us out then?

This is an international problem. Want to help us fix it?
