Independent Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders’ Petition Against Paulson.

Dear Secretary Paulson:

As a representative of the

Bush Administration, you have proposed a financial bailout program of $700 billion – over $2,000 for every man, woman, and child in the country. We

are appalled that your proposal puts the cost of this bailout on average Americans; that it contains no provisions reversing failed deregulatory

policies; that it allows executives at these failed institutions to continue to make exorbitant salaries and bonuses, and that your proposal

contains no help for average Americans who themselves are facing severe economic hardships.

While the Administration has quickly rallied to

help Wall Street, it has ignored the needs of the declining middle class. Since President Bush has been in office the wealthiest people in this

country have made out like bandits and have not had it so good since the 1920s. The top one-tenth of one percent now earn more income than the

bottom 50 percent of Americans and the top one percent own more wealth than the bottom 90 percent. Incredibly, the richest 400 people in our

country saw their wealth increase by $670 billion during the Bush presidency.

Having mismanaged the economy for 8 years while continually

insisting that, “The fundamentals of our economy are strong,” the Bush Administration, six weeks before an election, wants the middle class of this

country to bail out Wall Street to the tune of one trillion dollars. Meanwhile the wealthiest people, those who have benefited most from Bush’s

policies and are in the best position to pay, are being asked for no sacrifice at all. This is absurd. …

There has been little or no MSM coverage of this, but at the moment there is a massive grass roots email and fax and telephone campaign

going on against the Paulson bailout plan.

I suspect that the growing opposition within Congress to the plan is mainly fired by this

extremely unusual mass campaign. Legislators are perfectly used to being bombarded by mass and identical emails from groups such as the NRA. (Its

called Astroturfing – articifical grass roots!) But this is very different. All the emails are different and original and obviously come from

individuals who care passionately about the situation America finds itself in.

For details of how to join the campaign – for American

citizens – go to:

(PS. Hi, Ann. Great campaign! Keep steaming on!)
