Well I just missed it because it was all rushed through so quickly, seeing how it was a big emergency and all. It really needed to be rushed too, no time for members of congress to read it, because that would have delayed it reaching Obama's desk. It had to reach the desk quickly, so that it could sit there for four days waiting for him to sign it.

So now I am trying to figure out how my company can get a bailout. It will be tough, since my employees are non-union and I pay their health benefits.

My financial misfortune is all my own fault. In hindsight, I have handled my business and personal finances extremely badly. Foolishly, I bought a house I could easily afford. I do have a car loan to go with the mortgage, but it's a low rate and i can actually afford the payment. The boat is paid for and I didn't take a loan on it.

All very bad moves. How will I get Obama to lower my mortgage rate or pay down my principal now? My company does not have a huge debt for the taxpayers to shoulder.

I see I need to rethink the way I do things...
