All deposits at Peoples First were insured (generally 250K) by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation-a beneficial goverment program.

Prior to FDIC insurance those same deposits would have been unavailable and probably gone for good. Check out It's a Wonderful Life. It is Christmas time and you can get a glimpse of life without federally insuraed bank deposits.

Merry Christmas Everyone!

mmmm, NO.

But I believe the speed at which the wheels of government turn is determined by how much money the special interests are going to give out.

When the government feels they've tapped all the big money, then they might decide on something. It isn't over because they don't want it to be over.

The speed at which government moves isn't because of special interests; it was designed that way. The framers wanted to prevent the swift action of a few. I am glad that this debate concerning an issue that will affect every American is taking the time it is. What I wish was happening is that every Congressman/woman would be able to go over the bill and discuss it intellegently, and that it would be available for the public to view.
