But hey! at least your real estate will still be artificially inflated.

I'm not THAT upset since i have a pretty big loan out right now for school. It will be much easier to pay that back with inflated dollars.

I am guessing that i will probably end up paying back $.75 on the dollar.

This is great, trading public money for private debt. Ironically, these same people we just bought out thier bad investments put disclaimers on the stuff they sell to us that say the investment is not guaranteed and may lose value as they are not responsible for any losses we experience.

well that was expected by all economic strategists aka not the stupid and greedy House of Representatives coaxed to vote for it by money bags from lobbyists

Fixed.

They voted a very simple version down beforehand because they were afraid for thier jobs; and rightfully so. A few grand to thier re-election efforts soothed them over enough apparently. 400+ are up for re-election this fall.:shock:
