Indeed. Write your congressmen. Maybe we can get one of those assholes to write a bill invalidating the last one.

Repeal the bail out and add a law which stipulates that former heads/executives of investment houses or indeed any sizeable financial institution cannot be treasury secretaries.

Well, let's see. One of the first transactions:

Broker deal with JP Morgan to buy Wachovia for $2.1 B. Taxpayers pick up the rest.
WF offers to buy Wachovia days later for $15 Billion with no taxpayer money.

How the govt postures on this will show how the rest will unfold.
