Ok, I read the new bailout plan. With the mounting costs of all the other bailouts passed in the last two weekes - another 700 billion just last week, we are approaching 2 trillion in just 2 weeks time.

We can not afford this. This does not fix the problem.

Add a balanced budget amendment to it!

Write everyone against this bailout and ask them to attach that.

We can't pay for this, this recklessness will destroy the nation.

They can't pass it with a balanced budget amendment attached, and they can't argue against it - because the issue is we are destroying our currency because we can't pay for it.

It addresses the issue directly, and makes it impossible to pass.

Adding a balanced budget amendment is like giving it a white elephant - although we do need that amendment.
