Nope, they were a company that threatened an industry, which threatened the World economy. Put another way, they were one player who's failure if left to its own devices would destroy the US economy and so industry players stepped in to bail them out and took pieces. Same thing could happen here and already is to some degree. Other countries are stepping to TAKE our assets in exchange for bailing us out. Don't forget, the people who live here do so because there's economic benefit. If that were to cease, or if it were more profitable to move to another country many would do so. The point I'm making is that America is allowing itself to become a hollow shell while the rest of the world is perfectly happy to siphon out the egg. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;160198600;22374440;w Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:251022 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
