the whole mess pisses me off
ideologically, I don't believe that pumping money into the upper echelons of business will do much or anything at all for those who are actually struggling to pay their mortgages
economically, I realize that sitting back and watching our fundamental banking structures fail would be academically interesting but not much more
personally, I'm feeling duped in that I wish my wife and I had scraped every dollar we had and put a down payment on a home we weren't sure we could have made the payments on
basically I feel like the only people who are absolutely not receiving any direct benefit are those of us who made wise financial choices
