Yep, according to people my brother (formerly worked at Citi), Congress was told enact TARP or we will enact Marshall Law. I think I read this somewhere also.In general, I blame both parties for the economic fiasco...but this BOA thing was Pres. Bush...Paulson was his guy.

Someone pinged me on that a while back. That would have been better than this. I dont buy it. Those republicans who voted for TARP were bought with lost of pork (and beat on by media, to be fair).
Marshall Law ?
"Marshall" is a rank in a police dept.
"martial" means pertaining to war.
The term you are looking for is: "martial law", that means military in control.
