They will find the money to cover their losses. Because they're the ones who run things.

They made this mess. They should fix it.

that they will be granted a 2nd one because any politician who votes to do so might well be slitting their own throat come election time with a heck of alot of voters.

Fuck them...Unfortunately the people that will suffer are the tellers and other lower-level management staff. They will get the proverbial shaft up the ass. The senior executives will walk away with millions for not having done anything other than contribute to the economic meltdown. I think a tar-an-feathering campaign is in order...would love to see those fat, old bastards in pain and fearing for their lives.....

BOA is in a too big to fail category. Just watch, the feds are going to crank up the printing presses this weekend to bail these criminals out. And as usual, we are going to all have to share the pain.
