Right now, over 90% of people are paying their mortgage.

I heard 96%, but that was on the radio, so I have no link to verify.

could be.  I was listening to political banter that had it "over" 90%.  That's pretty good though.  At least there's a payback option on this bailout, and not just corporate welfare.

Have you noticed that the repubs have completely stopped using the word "socialism" after using it on Obama for 18 straight months?  Methinks they know he'll simply reply citing the current bill as repubs doing it on a much bigger scale.

I agree that using that term wouldn't not be wise at the moment.
