"PHILADELPHIA (Reuters) - Governors of five U.S. states urged the federal government to provide $1 trillion in aid to the country's 50 states to help pay for education, welfare and infrastructure as states struggle with steep budget deficits amid a deepening recession."

Everyone is getting bailed out but the people. Sigh

Bailing out the states is very damned close to bailing out the people. Much closer than bailing out unethical banking/investment CEOs. Honestly, I hope Obama takes FDR as his #1 role model. We need a National Recovery Act. We need a Works Progress Administration. We need a Civilian Conservation Corps. It would put people to work and it would repair our decaying infrastructure. plus lay ground for sustainable energy for the future.

"Cutting to the bottom line, at least in our minds, inventory and price remain the two largest cyclically unresolved outstanding fundamental issues for residential real estate at the moment. Once inventories at least get in line with historical precedent and prices stabilize, then we can begin to anticipate a better tone to mortgage credit markets, the housing industry itself, consumer well being and hopefully the macro economy. It’s when housing stabilizes that the unprecedented stimulus being force fed into the system by the Fed/Treasury/Administration may begin to bite and gain traction."

"While somewhat bereft of investment merit, I am not surprised by the strong upward moves of U.S. Treasuries, which was by far the best performing asset class of 2008. For better or worse, the majority of investors still consider Treasuries as the ultimate safe haven, and it is therefore understandable that they would rally in times of uncertainty. But now, I urge some caution."
