From the article:

Some congressional staff members have privately concluded that the notice was illegal. But they have worried that saying so publicly could unravel several recent bank mergers made possible by the change and send the economy into an even deeper tailspin.

So they would have merged regardless?

Doesn't seem so. That only says that congressional staff member are worried that it could unravel mergers, not that it will. In other words, they've got them by the balls, just like they planned.

It depends if you live in the real world, or a world where communism seems like a practical idea. You're talking to someone who knows a great deal about what Lenin predicted. You should try a little harder.

There would have been mergers and buyouts anyways. Several had already happened before the bailout. The only difference is at what point the mergers and buyouts would have occurred since it somewhat changes the cost:benefit.

This isn't much of an issue specifically, but continues to speak towards how much it's going to cost overall if we continue to try to prop up every last failure. $100bn is nothing in that regard, but all the $100bns (and more) will definitely add up. This is just handing over cash while the taxpayer is suppose to get something for the $700bn, at least that's the way it was presented, and how a lot of people believe.

Also, there's no reason for Congress to not have the ****ing upperhand in this. On the contrary it's the banks who do.

You can pretend it's deeper than that, but it's really not. Don't try too hard -- you miss seeing the big picture.

I'm also not surprised to see che waltz in here and tow the party line with his typical fallacies ("it wasn't communism that was the problem, it's corruption"). Some people are addicted to the kool-aid and can't see it any other way.

Reality beckons -- will you ever come?

Monarchy

[duncanalisstmp]

It's incredible and really ****ing pissing me off!

Here we have a president who just got elected on promises of transparency to restore confidence in government and these *******s are pulling this ****. My bet is that Obama never mentions this ****!

Yes, people who know what they're talking about advocate communism.

People who don't learn from history advocate communism.
People who don't understand the true human condition advocate communism.
People who don't have what it takes to excel individually advocate communism.
People who don't know what they're talking about advocate communism.

It's all true. Go to your average "communist meeting" and you'll see all kinds of hilariously ignorant people. Che isn't necessarily one of them -- he's not stupid, he's just crazy.

You on the other hand... blah, blah, blah. Show me that you know something to debate about. Otherwise I'll just waste my time.

Nope, progressive. The US has never been a Monarchy, so I'm not reverting to anything... Besides, Monarchy is the natural sucessor to Democracy. The people eventually figure out that they don't really run the state very well themselves, and honestly it's too much work to vote anyway, so let's elect us a Monarch to do it for us.
