I think we should be sure that AIG really does make the payments back to the Gov. (U.S. TAXPAYER). It would be nice to see SOMEONE held accountable for their risky business practices.
Who? How? When?-Let's get names and dates.

A GOOD FOUNDATION STARTS FROM THE BOTTOM UP NOT THE TOP DOWN. HELPING THE PEOPLE AT THE BOTTOM WITH LOW INTERST RATES TO HELP THEM PAY BACK THE MORTGAGES, MAKING MORE LOANS ACCESSISBLE TO QUALIFIED PEOPLE. ITS THE AVERAGE AMERICAN PEOPLE WHO CAN HELP GET US OUT OF THIS MESS, NOT THE GREEDY CEO'S AT THE TOP WHO KEEP SCREWING UP. WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH OUR GOVERNMENT?

I used a company called Professional Loan Modifications to reduce my interest rate on my mortgage. How come the government doesn't help homeowners get in touch with companies like this? instead of spending billions bailing out insurance companies. After 9/11 and the insurance companies increased premiums on americans the government didn't jump in to reduce our premiums so why are we bailing them out now instead of helping out homeowners. Makes no sense to me
