Existing businesses don't typically continue to take out loans to make payroll. If they are, they're already in deep trouble. Most companies start up with an initial loan, but that's not a continual process of taking out NEW loans. New loans are more often for new equipment, expanding territories or lines of merchandise, research and development etc. A healthy business is likely to find plenty of people wanting to lend them money. Anyone on the fringe of failure (or already there) are the ones who are going to have trouble. And that's nothing new. Banks got in trouble because they didn't make good decisions on who to give loans to. Risky loans fail. I'd rather see support of healthy companies who are already making good decisions and who have viable business models so they can become larger and hire more people. That's sound business and if more people did it that way, there'd be less problems right now.
By the way, no that the bailout has passed.. let's see the market is down.. oh yeah.. 500 points, give or take, already today on top of the losses at the end of the last week. And folks are saying more companies now have their hands out for bailouts. What a surprise. So we may just find we spent 700 billion EXTRA dollars chasing bad money down the drain. Yee ha! And both our candidates were all for it.

"The great thing about a dream come true, is that it is born with a great appetite. That appetite keeps it growing and evolving and it swallows up all those other dreams you have and spits them back out as reality as well." -Brian Austin Whitney
