Thank goodness we have the Age Pension here in Australia, I know thats what I will be relying on when I reach age 65, as will a number of my friends. I also thank the fact we have medicare here, so I will get treated (albeit after a wait) if I get sick.

Anyway I do NOT support using taxpayer monies to bail out a stockmarket be it in the US or anywhere else, no matter the cost. If it causes a world wide depression, then at least it will show many in the world how the poor live (when they become them). If the bail out is allowed and a further crash happens than all that much needed public money is gone forever.
