i told a walmart worker that amex was now a bank and that qualified them for a bailout. i then told her that since her name was penny she should also qualify as a bank and she needed to hurry up before it was all gone.

This sort of thing is why people like Glenn Beck are collecting pitchforks.

I’m starting to wonder if the U.S. government is even going to be able to make payroll next fiscal year.

The best part is, now American Express is a bank, and they’re starting to look at consumer credit for some of this money. Since the bailout was passed, the recipients have changed. Also, the bill that allocated thee $700Bn removes any accountability from those tasked to spend it.

So basically, Paulson can give it to whomever he so chooses. No oversight.

Nice. Thanks Congress.
