I can't afford my lease on my Escalade? Can't make the payment on my McMansion in the Hamptons? No ski trip to Vail this winter? These funds are open specifically to high net worth, high earners. No pain, no gain. What kind of spin could be put out to bail out hedge funds? I can’t afford my lease on my Escalade? Can’t make the payment on my McMansion in the Hamptons?

As for my opinion, I want first and foremost transparency, for without that, we the taxpayer will ultimately pay more, because we weren’t allowed to know all the facts. We the public are not dummies, as this blog and many others show. And Paulson is not qualified, nor is anyone else, to be sole decider.

I really enjoy your articles, but I would like to say something about the wording of this title. Hedge funds cannot "suffer" they have no feelings. In my opinion emotional words like that don't make the style more colorful, on the contrary, it makes an unintentionally cynical impression. How many people, whole countries really suffered because of these Hedge Fund? And no newspaper wrote the title "People suffering because of Hedge Fund attack".<br/><br/>Sincerely “Hedge funds suffer mass redemptions”
