That depends on who's asking. If it is to get the money, I'm all ready to be a good consumer for the cause. If it is after I've gotten the money, it will go into my retirement account where I can make interest off of it.

I'll have to do my homework on the IMF and the World Bank. I've heard of them but I just assumed they were currency cartels set up ny the central banks to manipulate the real value of money.

Why does it have to be either or? Why have tax cuts or bailouts? Why can't we just stop spending?
