Bailouts Present a Moral Hazard
''The current bailouts are a strong argument for tighter regulation, but regulators cannot be everywhere, any more than a claims adjuster can ride around in your car all day'' Whilst not being so naive to believe that regulation can be unlimited, it is clear that the banking industry has (had) sufficent margins to be able to support a much more ...

bailout
This 'bailout' is America's new crazy brand of 'Socialism'...without any of the benefits!

Economics & Finance Gabfest Please!
I'm not really sure where else to post this request. I enjoy Slate's Political Gabfest... until they venture into economy-related topics... they can be a bit out of their depth.

Not a tie... clear win for Obama!
You have to be kidding McCain was not even close to a tie. Did you watch the debate? This is ridiculous. Obama BY FAR showed he is ready to be the President of the United States.

what mommies do
Lots of moms who have decided to stay home because they just can't leave their babies in daycare, either because they find the separation too hard or because after having to pay childcare fees and gas they don't really bring much money home, they are doing GPT sites from home. I am one of them. No, I didn't believe in those sites at first. My ...
