Poll To DU!!!
http://www.910knew.com/main.html

the funny thing is we agree with the freepers on this one...

Banks are refusing to reveal how they have used the bail-out money distributed so far. What should Congress do?

a)Pull the plug on any other funds until full revelation is made.

b)Pull the plug on any other funds until full revelation is made and bank CEO's make significant cuts in their salaries.

c)Pull the plug on any other funds until full revelation is made, bank CEO's make significant cuts in their salaries and make acceptable good-faith effort to rework loans rather than foreclosing.

3. Start acting like China with our corrupt executives.
A few public executions and I'm pretty sure the bonuses would end and they would be very forthcoming with the allocation of the TARP funds. And probably start lending to citizens again.

I know, too radical. But I can dream. Lengthy jail sentences might accomplish the same goal.

Banks are refusing to reveal how they have used the bail out money distributed so far. What should Congress do?
It is ALL due to the Credit DeFault Swap Traders from all over the country and or world ( more out of the country than in ) right , because otherwise What is it?

9. "Trading places"
My favorite part is when they are crossing the plaza of the World trade center talking about "not taking any prisoners"

7. I'd go further than C
I'd JAIL the CEO of ANY bank or business that has taken funds and then refused to reveal where every single cent has gone. And they would NOT be allowed OUT until the accounting is done, and every single cent paid out as dividends, or christmas bonuses, or any sort of bonus paid out is RETURNED to the Government.

And then I would PULL their incorporation papers, and force them to do business with FULL RESPONSIBILITY to go on the shoulders of the CEOs, board members, and shareholders. That means every future problem comes from the pockets of those who benefited from GREED.
