"The genius financial products that kept your eyes deep in Cristal and
vacation homes nearly caused the global financial system to seize up."

But, hey. There's still time for the whole system to seize up. $700b
is just used grease to try keeping the gears spinning a while longer.
Oh, yeah. Anyone thinking this is going to do any significant, lasting
good doesn't understand:
* the financial system (which I *don't*), or...
* how the US Congress works (which I *do*, sorta-kinda)
* human nature (ditto).
