1 billion Fox news said a couple of days ago that he and his family may have as much as 70 billon, making him the world's richest man. No wonder his subjects want to kick this rascal out when the average person in Egypt lives off of 1 dollar per day. Shame on you hosni

Henry (Hank) Paulson is the Treasury Secretary of the United States. He was formerly the CEO of Goldman Sachs. The massive $700 billion dollar bailout is his plan to help save the failing banks and lending institutions in the United States.
Because our free market has failed, our republic has failed, and the will of the people is ignored by a corrupt government.
The bailout did not get through Congress, but no, the money would come from the US taxpayers. Update: The bailout did pass, and the money is coming from the Treasury and Federal Reserve. This could be argued to suggest the money is coming from the taxpayers.
Much of it is still evolving. Suggest you review wikipedia under bailout plan.
If the bailout package is able to successfully revive the US economy then the US government should cut spending on the bailout. But some financial experts feel this 700 billion may not be sufficient. If what they predict becomes true then the government would have to pump in more cash into the bailout package. This bailout cannot be left in midway because the future of the world and US economy lies predominantly on this bailout and people are hoping that this works out successful.
The bailout was passed by the House of Representatives and signed into law by the president on Friday October 3, 2008.
Congress says 700 billion dollars, but no one knows for sure.
Directly NO Indirectly YES (Because the people elected by the citizens of USE were the ones who created this bailout plan)
It comes from the US Treasury...
He would do anything in his power to save America's economy. This contributor feels that Barack Obama's remarks about the $700 billion bailout were positive but incorrect.
It is unclear the affect the bailout will have on GDP and unemployment. GDP growth has the biggest impact on employment so how the economy responds to the bailout is the critical factor, If credit markets loosen up and credit begins to flow again it will have a very positive impact on GDP growth. In that instance the impact of the bailout will be a reduction in unemployment.
