5. I'm a youngin'...

Just turned a ripe 29 so I have many years ahead to plan my retirement; however I am most definitely NOT for the bailout. Hopefully the majority of Americans can hear beyond GWB and his insistence, because it's all CRAP!

6. You need to add an option for "I have three kids to put through college so I'll die before I retire"

7. What is this retirement thing of which you speak?

I am a generation X'er. I never grew up with the expectation that I would do anything but work until I die.

11. Ohshit. You're right.

9. I am within 10 years of what would have been my retirement. I now plan on just working till I drop.

Assuming I don't get "retired" by the company. I don't know about the bailout. It wierds me out that the republicans are on the same side as Dennis Kucinich and Michael Moore. Also, I can't tell if the government is taking over banking (socialism) or if the industry is taking over the government (fascism). I'd feel better about the rescue plan if I knew Obama was going to be in charge soon.

10. Other --- I have no choice in the matter.

Retired eight years ago. Before BushCo devastated the economy and the US Treasury.

[Common Sense Party]

12. I am pro-SOME form of bailout, just not the ones presented so far.

14. Very informative poll, rucky. Looks like a near 50/50 split.

[rucky]

15. I think it shows that people here are approaching this pretty objectively

and believe what they believe is good for everyone - not just because of their own stake in the situation.

Gotta admit that it's not really what I expected.

[lamp_shade]

16. Not what I expected either. From the reaction at GD-P, I expected

4 to 1 against the bill.

17. Retired 3 years ago - never touched my savings - lost half of what I had
