		<description>Is this guy&#039;s name really Kash -n- Kari, I mean really this is just too much!! And what a bunch of crap that people are homeless, and YET &quot;$503 million to top executives&quot; who probably all still have houses. This pisses me off so much I can hardly stand to read about it, because there doesn&#039;t seem to be a thing we can to do in the way of justice!</description>

		<description>This is why reform is needed under a government that&#039;s determined to live by progressive ideals.  Indeed, government can be an ally (as it&#039;s not inherently corrupt), but politicians that create the rules sully the system with their hand-outs to ignorant executives and mismanagement of taxpayer dollars.

There needs to be more accountability for these actions, in addition to more transparency concerning where taxpayers dollars are headed.  There must be stricter rules for politicians that sacrifice the trust of the taxpayers by coddling with executives that scoff at the idea of order and progress.</description>

		<description>Rep. Cummings, a known and recognized fighter for the people, asks, &quot;Is Kashkari a chump?&quot; Unfortunately, Mr. Crusader Cummings, the real real question should be, &quot;Would you describe yourself as a gangster, Mr. Kashkari? Are you reprared to give us the names of the people who should be indicted...with you...for embezzlement?&quot; &quot;Is everything here kosher?&quot; is another question you could have asked.

Mr. Cummings, when you have some spare time, Batman would like to use you.</description>

		<description>Aaand this is the problem with the bailout as proposed.  We should be getting equity (i.e. buying their crap stock) in return.  Appoint a government official on their board of directors to represent the shareholders/taxpayers, and use the board&#039;s powers to rein in the corporate executives.

The mechanisms already exist for oversight, provided that we don&#039;t simply hand them free cash.  Treasury should be buying stocks on the open market, or even better, negotiating sweetheart deals like Warren Buffet gets.</description>

		<description>It&#039;s time for the McDonald&#039;s crowd to grab some bags of coal, head to AIG&#039;s corporate offices and give these ass clowns the &quot;real&quot; bonuses that they deserve.

Then take the AIG&#039;s executives fancy cars, suits and whatever else and see if anyone gives two sh!ts.

Then again, I&#039;m sure Dumbya is stewing in his seat making sure he nor any of his stooges will never have to answer for his and Lord Cheney&#039;s Sith economic, wartime and non-existent domestic infrastructure policies.</description>

Dear Rep. Cummings,
Asking people, &quot;What&#039;s wrong with that picture,&quot; when they suffer from an extreme case of abject reality will do no good for they already are divorced from reality that no matter the situation, their plight will always seem to them, the principle priority that must be maintained, regardless of how it affects other people.

		<description>We were promised tranperancy and there is none.  Kucinich and Sanders were right.  Goldman Sachs gives Henry Paulson $700 million and then Hank gives them how many $billions?  Are we even allowed to know?  It&#039;s our money.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t think it&#039;s quite as simple as &quot;we are the chumps&quot;, although we surely are.

I think the better answer to Rep. Cummings&#039; question, &lt;em&gt;&quot;What really bothers me is all these other people who are lined up. They say, well, is Kashkari a chump&quot;&lt;/em&gt; is that, no, Kaskari and Paulsen think WE are the chumps.</description>
