So much for transparency.
Wouldn't we all like to know exactly what the figures are, that were blacked out?
After all, it is OUR money that they are using to pay these crooks.

We Americians are treated like children! The funny thing about these "black-outs" is when questioned, the government always says it is due to National Security.......How they gona explain this?

If things keep going like they have, I truly believe that the peasants will grab the pitchforks and storm the Bastille in DC! It's only a matter of time. More and more people are getting to the point where they have very little to lose.

Well I happen to know a Wells Fargo bank manager who is quite popular with the higher ups and they where furious when they where "forced" to take the buy out type "help" shoved down their throats by the fed. They didnt need it or want it because in the plans it clearly states that after 3 years the fed can sell "thier" stake to whom ever they choose and it doesnt have to be an american business or investor....hmmmmm
rothchilds anyone...

Everything is coming to a head. People are going to decide that they have nothing to lose by taking their torches and pitchforks to DC.
There is no excuse for this stuff to be blacked out other than more secrets, more stealing from the people, more funds for Halliburton and such.

Will there ever be an end to this madness?????

God help us all, they're going to need ALL THE TROOPS HERE AT HOME if Bush even tries to continue as DICTATOR. I can only hope these thugs get out and soooooooooon!!!!! Freakazoid head cases that they are.

That is because he is contracting all Sach ex cons and his very favorite dirty cronies.

Hey when you have a blank check at the expenses of tax payer you can spread the wealth that doesn't belong to you among your favorite pimps.

Based on the gutless way in which this whole thing was passed . . . the $150 billion to convince congress and the senate that the economy was in dire enough straites to pass the bailout . . . the hundreds upon hundreds of billions that have been doled out like acid at Woodstock . . . the inability of the government to curb the self aggrandized golden parachutes by those who recieve the 'bailout' money . . . did anyone really think it would be any different?

I'll bet they'll claim that because a bank got envelopes full of nasty letters and baking soda, they need to keep names and amounts private to preserve the nation's security.

National security . . . right . . . anyone buying THAT one?

the fact that they are covering this up does not suprise me.
The fact that they are using or money in ways they don't want to show us does not suprise me.
The fact that they think we're dumb enough not to question it... Suprises me. A fifth graders smart enogh to see this...

i read an article yesterday which actually stated that PriceCoopersWaterhouse
will be one of 2 accounting firms to engage in some of the 'troubled assets'

and their participation and expertese will only be one of 4 or more 'teams'


heres a guage as to the price of the PriceCW contract... if i recall it was for Plus $450M for a contracted ammount of work until 2011.

a second, oversight firm, was supposed to double check the PCW work, for a fee of $130+M..

i will try to recover the article & link, because it was the first i heard of the accounting costs for the first batch of Troubled Assets being bought with the remaining $100bn
(see the Treasury already spent one tranch of the promised $700bn...
to fund the $70bn bonus pool for the 9 'sacred' banks employees,
plus buy into the banks with $25bn bankrolls of preferred stocks from many of these same 9 'sacred' primary-dealer banks..)

the Treasury yesterday awarded a guarantee of another $540bn to the various 'money market' deposits/depositors that several of these banks sell to the public... And that an 'oversight-accounting contract' has definitely been awarded to Goldman Sachs,,, & from what i understand -> GS will need to create 5 more regional divisions of 'Money Market' accounting offices to provide guaranty that the government guarantees are being administered.
Paying !! the fox to guard the hen house....Again



off to retrace my CP history, thanks

So Udio in other words after these thieves of tax payer keep paying themselves for contracts to "favored firms" the bail out money of 700b will be gone and occurs another 700b will be needed to keep the different contracts working.

Darn it sounds like Iraq and the private give away.

But then again already about 2.5 trillion has been awarded to banks or "promises to banks"

Can somebody keep the math on this !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it seems that we will be bankrupting ourselves the tax payer just to keep the wealthy global elite happy and their minions "working on the problem".

MARG: I'd love to keep tabs on this... But my calculator doesn't go that high!!!

How many inside jobs do they need to do before people will actually see the govt for what it is?
