For       sure, we helped bail out the auto industry, we didn't, however, have to do       anything like the same with "our" banks and for the simple reason that in       1996 our finance minister, Paul Martin, introduced measures that prohibited       them from the utter stupidity your American banks engaged in.        They fully understood the consequences of their corrupt practices and they       now fully understand that they are both bullet-proof and Teflon-coated, as       just demonstrated by this latest omnibus bill passed by the house.               cheers....Jeff              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
