I certainly don't feel the loophole is justified.


Now that you've conceded that the loophole isn't justified (and, therefore, that the failure to take advantage of same is irrelevant to my original question [reproduced below]) what's your take on my original question:


I don't agree that it's irrelevant. Is a plan to do something as bad as actually doing it? (we'll be revisiting some of Gordon Liddy's plans if you want to argue that it is )

MEM, seriously, do you still think this deal is anything but an abomination?


Now, before you answer, let me state the following: it is perfectly acceptable (and not a sign of hypocrisy, a flip flop, or other failing on your part) to just say that, as more information comes out regarding the bailout, your opinion as changed regarding same.


The bailout isn't perfect and there's much to criticise but I still think it's better than what would have happened without any government help.

Fair play!
