    I'm not going to feel bad for the higher-ups that should have seen this coming, but yeah, a lot people are losing jobs and their savings due to these various failures.

    ya but the same gen pop will suffer as always
    As Canardo said, it will be much worse than normal.

    Basically anybody that has a job and pays taxes will be affected someway by this disaster, unless you make a load as it is.

    Whose up for a fire sale?
    Perhaps.

    AIG is probably too big to let fail. What I can't make any sense out of is why the government would bail out Bear Sterns but let Lehman Brothers and AIG go into insolvency. If I had to pick one to save, it would have to be AIG as they are more crucial to the common folk than Bear. The government and FED isn't making much sense
