It seems to me that with all of this bailing out going on that the Federal Government has way too much of our money...

The Federal Reserve will be using its own money for a bridge loan and will get warrants in return. They will probably end up making money on the deal.

The news I’m seeing on live Dow Jones Newswire is not calling this a “loan”.

It’s being called a “rescue” that “leaves the government as the controlling party of the firm”

I read that AIG will begin selling some of its assets within 2 weeks to begin repaying the loan, thereby reducing the warrants.

The Federal Reserve needs the Andrew Jackson treatment.
