Slightly off topic, but I am curious...if that is the way we go, and we as a government do the bail out, are we then a socialist nation?
By definition, yes we would be. But as we have seen, capitalism hasn't been our strongest trait as a country as of late.

There are no real answers here and I don't want to sound like a know it all. I am 100% sure that a lot of my beliefs are flawed. It is however how I have summarized it all in my head, and I do agree with a poster earlier:

We need to stimulate the economy by instituting better infrastructure: roads, bridges, etc...Which in turn will put more jobs out there for us, will make our communities nicer and it will pump up some public morale by seeing "change".
