#1 Same thing I heard and read here all day in Korea. "It's the Americans' fault. They've got to fix it!"

My response: no, we don't have to fix it. It will fix itself. It wasn't the U.S. taxpayer who made the bad bets and it shouldn't be the U.S. taxpayer who has to eat the losses.

Euros or Asians want to pay $700 billion to Wall Street, they can be my guest. I damned well don't want to and I won't be voting for anyone who does.
