I like this part:
"If the Congress proceeds with a fiscal package, it should consider including measures to help improve access to credit by consumers, home buyers, businesses and other borrowers," Bernanke said. "Such actions might be particularly effective at promoting economic growth and job creation," he added.

Easy money!! Isn't that what got us into this mess in the first place?????? ARE GOVERNMENT IS NUTS!!!!!! Too much money in the system. Inflation will be a BIG problem down the road.

Am I the only one that thinks this stuff is getting crazy? Sometimes you have to let the markets adjust. The government is refusing to let them do that. UNTIL WE START SPENDING WHAT WE MAKE THIS MESS WILL NOT GO AWAY!!

It isn't so much that liberals are ignorant. It's just that they know so many things that aren't so.

Zero knucklehead. Read the actual articles about it. It discusses tax breaks and whatnot. Not another check.

Exerts from the Sheperd investment Strategist Oct. 17th.

The reason why 700 billion won't be effective.

http://www.bis.org/statistics/otcder/dt1920a.pdf

Beause there are 600 TRILLION DOLLARS cumlative in the Notional (contract amount) OTC derivatives market of which 350 Trillion is tied to interest......or the LIBOR rate.

We are leveraged beyond reason.

We have consumers around the world locked into debt they cannot afford.

We have massive interventions spooking people everywhere.

We have the technological capabilities, as never before, to act en masse to dump financial assets in tidal waves of selling.

WE HAVE WOEFULLLY FEW REAL LEADERS ANYWHERE WILLING TO STEP UP AND TAKE ACTION BASED ON MARKET REALITY, NOT POLITICAL EXPEDIENCY.

So I am afraid last weeks selling was just a dress rehersal for things to come.

What is amazing is that you can follow the drift.

They talk about everything but good jobs for a long period of time.

Anything eles is nothing more than a band -aid over a big whole'

So after a stimulus package what do we do after 90 days?

I really do not think the stimulus package was put in affect to do that much over all even at the large cost involved.

This package was designed to buy them time without the whole bottom falling out at once.

Now we will see if they can help fix some of the other problems that put us where we are now.
