If the TARP funds hadn't been stuck between the bankers' mattresses, we might not be having this conversation right now. We (the taxpayers) bought preferred stock, in order to inject capital into the financial system, so the banks would (in turn) inject that capital into the economy. We're not, uh, seeing a whole lot of "injecting" going on, so maybe Harry should get the Association together and explain to them that they can't make money if they don't spend said money.</p> <p>And the second observation I have for Harry is: talk to Mike Walden about the Chinese/Japanese buying up the T-bills thing. See, he's worried that Wall Street is going to buy them up, and this will "crowd out" other investments that they're, um, not making right now.</p> Tue, 17 Feb 2009 17:49:15 -0500 scharrison comment 16109 at http://projects.newsobserver.com http://projects.newsobserver.com/under_the_dome/session_opens_in_house_senate#comment-6649 <p>ASU rules the football world in N.C.!!!
