However yes the market would correct itself, when Banks go Bankrupt other banks move in. Thats how Capitalist economics work. THere is money to be made in loans and other's that would be willing to buy mortgage loans that these FInanical GIants are desperatly holding onto hoping the government will help them.
I never said I did think that the American tax payer should pay off the filthy rich bankers. I also never said that I approved of the bail out (as it is now).
However, the economy will not simply correct itself at the expense of the wealthy.
