My guess is that everyone who wants to shoot the bailout down either rents a house or lives with their parents.

Is it the irresponsible homeowners that drove the price up on oil? Or was it the speculators?

Was it the homeowners all across the country that worked for businesses that couldn't keep going due to the gas prices, thus losing their homes because they no longer had a job.

This just keeps snowballing. People lose their jobs, can't pay gas, can't pay their mortgages.... and on and on.

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac didn't cause them to lose their jobs.

If there was ever a time for government to step in, I think it would be NOW.
