>>BTW, I am sure you have heard that the administration has changed course once again with its bailout plans. The idea of helping out individual mortgage holders who are in trouble with their loans has been scrapped and they plan to use the remaining bailout money (the dwindling part of it that's left) on more corporate bailouts.

>Have you read the reports on how the recipients are using the money? So far, four biggies have used the bailout money to expand and buy out other companies...
Why do we always try to hold the beneficiaries of charity to higher standards than those who give it? They're just people like others, and being recipients of charity, they have their share of bad/low education, substantial abuse, dysfunctional family life etc.
