Dear Obama,

Don’t give banks any money, since they don’t deserve it.
Do make sure banks are stable.

Don’t keep paying people at the financial institutions that got us into this mess.
Do have experienced and knowledgable people oversee the bailout.

Don’t reward people who made bad decisions.
Do make sure people don’t go homeless.

Don’t laugh or make jokes.
Do be upbeat and encouraging.

Don’t raise taxes on anyone, since that’s wealth redistribution.
Do raise taxes on 100 specific individuals who we think deserve it.

Don’t take over companies, since that’s socialist.
Do control everything those companies do.

Don’t allow companies that accepted the bailout money to spend anything, since that’s wasting our tax dollars.
Do make a profit on the bailout money.

Don’t do anything that seems unfair.
Do solve the crisis.

Thanks
