I absolutely hate the idea of the bailout, and at the same time I recognize that a lot of people are going to be hurt if something isn't done. Nevertheless, what Bernie Sanders said keeps ringing in my ears. If a corporation s too big to fail, it's too big to exist. My ideal solution would be to nationalize the bastards, and then move on to Big Oil, the railroads, the power companies, etc. Actually I wouldn't insist on nationalization. Collectivize them, maybe. Anyway, that ain't gonna happen.

What I really think is happening is that the Democrats are in the process of being further co-opted, and maybe turned into the party of Big Bidniss as a replacement for the self-immolating Republicans.

Aargh! What's an old northwoods Red to do?
