- TrevorJ 18y agoAh, thanks for clearing that up. I actually did read the article, I just happen to disagree that revenge is the primary motivation for the American people's lack of support for the bailout. I may be a bit too idealistic in my assessment though.
- arockwell 18y agoI agree, revenge is a real tough sell when a majority of people are a homeowner.
- mhb 18y agoThe reason I thought the article was interesting was not because it purports to explain the actual motivation of people who are not in favor of the bailout. Rather it describes interesting experimental evidence about why that could be a plausible contributor due to a hard-wired aspect of our brains.
