"brazen boldness coupled with impudent assurance and insolence."
I would even say effrontery is a better word for what these people have.
So let me get this straight, "financial sector"*, you want $700 billion dollars from the taxpayers (nee me and mine) to help you fix your fuck-ups, completely resulting from bank greed and trying to piddle in as much interest as possible on loans too costly for their recipients because of unexpectedly adjusted repayment schedules, and yet you (nee financial sector) bitch about the newly passed (as of yet only passed by the House) "Credit Cardholder's Bill of Rights", that states that credit card issuers have to give 45 days notice to customers (again, me and mine) before increasing interest rates and are now required to mail out bills 25 days before they're due instead of 14?
So, the availability of our money is only important to you when you need it? Hmm, that's a concept. That's not even like biting the hand that feeds you, that's like biting at the air right before the spoon. Like that Val Kilmer "Top Gun" bite. Also, does this mean that every taxpayer who contributes to the bailout is a shareholder of the companies in need? In any other free market circumstance, that would definitely be the case.
*I don't like when they say Wall Street because it's 2 blocks from me, and dare I say that street is gorgeous? Absolutely nothing wrong with the street. At all.
