Anytime you have the government take over ANY entity of the economy, there is massive trouble. When you have private sector businesses that fail, it doesn't really matter, another business will buy them out and take them over. What happens when a government entity fails? There is no competition and nothing but tax payer money to rescue it and if it's not rescued, we are crippled. Turn on the news and watch Greece crumble before your eyes. @jimmiekins LOL – …

The repeal of the Glass-Steagal Act wasn't really a bad thing. The Financial Modernization Act softened the economic collapse, and TARP should never have been enacted (even without 100 cents on the dollar and all that garvage)?

All Republicans did was introduce the GLB Act which actually softend the crisis. Now, if we are talking about "Tarp" Yea, that was a repub mistake that I am irritated with. @jimmiekins sure i …
