The only real question will be which is worse, just letting natural economics takes their course, or deal with the mess of paying for a bailout. I think we lose either way, and it won't be O's fault. He's just trying to slow the freefall a little bit, but he's unfortunately coming into office a bit too late, after the real damage has been done.
If the country doesn't get rid of the TRUE causes, evil CEOs like that Madoff guy, and the Golden Parachute Clubs all over the country, it will be like only removing half of a malignant cancer. It'll return with a vengeance.
I don't get what all this 'martial law' fear you express is all about, but if you want that to be your boogeyman, then so be it.
