Fighting the financial crisis has put the U.S. on the hook for some $5 trillion a report says. So far.

For all the fury over Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson's $700 billion emergency economic relief fund, it seems downright puny when compared to the running total of the government's response to the credit crisis.

Well one thing is for sure right now the Asian Markets have another down turn and Germany is officially in recession.

So I wonder when our nation will proclaim a recession rather than hinting at it.

As Paulson squandering of tax payer money goes its merry way,

America main problem as the cause for the economical mess goes without been addressed.

Moody's Economy.com forecasts that even with loan modification programs, 1.6 million Americans will lose their homes this year either in a foreclosure or a distressed sale, and another 1.9 million are projected to lose their homes in 2009.

And still nobody dares to ask what Paulson is doing with the tax payer money from the bail out and whom is pocketing the money.

If you are planning on bankrupting a nation all you need is to pay for the services of People like Paulson and Barnake, whoops they don't need money to do the job they just get a hefty cut.
