Deploying Paulson’s Capital: The Strong and Weak of It
The key to solving the problem is writing down these mortgage backed securities, which hasn't been mentioned because so many are worthless that it would reveal the gross fraud perpetuated on the American people. Without a write down the banks will not trust each other and continue to hoard any money they are given in order to meet asset requirements. Sweden fixed a similar problem years ago in a few years and lost very little in terms of GDP but they forced banks to write down their loans. This is getting worse by the day. Unless the criminals running this country are removed from office forthwith and replaced with honest people like Kucinich and Paul, there is no hope and the system will crash.
Expect a downgrading of America's credit at any time and a crashing of the dollar. America's credit is rated junk by Marc Faber and he's one of the best in the business, predicting this present crisis years ago.
What a Look Back at the Japanese Market Tells Us
Japan aside, your assumptions about what Americans need to do comes right out of the corporate playbook. Basically you are advocating a kind of corporate fascism that has proved fashionable the past 30 years or so. Look where it has led to: Cheney and his neo-nazis and a busted financial system and people, along with a government focused on its military empire and not its people.
However, there is an individual playbook that says if the funds now going toward corporate welfare and our military empire, and our welfare system were made more efficient, money could be allocated toward education and motivating Americans to live healthier and more productive lifestyles unlike that which corporate TV now promotes. The result: Americans standard of living would rapidly rise.
The present corrupt Enron (1/2 the Congress was involved in Enron payoffs) written large Junta running American government needs to be removed and replaced with a honest efficient government working for the health, freedom and welfare of the people. I believe if these ideals were enacted America, within 10 years, could again lead the world, by example, in freedom, progress and spirit and be debt free.
Nothing will change until the present system collapses and Americans realize that this collapse is no accident but due to rampant corruption and mismanagement. Governments can run economically and efficiently and for the good of all, but not when they are controlled by the present corporate mafia who neither respect the Constitution nor the people they represent.

Adding to My GE Position
Suitors are dropping out of auction for GE's $30 billion credit card unit. Had GE tried to sell that card unit 2 years ago there would have been 10 banks chomping at the bit to pick up that portfolio. Now, no one wants it.

Valuing GE (It's Cheap)
Debt/Equity ratio is 4, way too much debt. Where is it going to get the money to finance operations? From Bernanke?
If you fail to understand the above then take a look at its stock price, going the way of Bear Stearns and why are investors buying so many puts on this company if it wasn't about to go bankrupt?
