13. The banks
I'm still confused about his position on the banks and why he thinks they can just write off the losses and then be recapitalized, and is he asking for any changes in regulation. It's only 10:00 here, maybe I'll try to catch it before I head out. Davos is on CNN now so that might be interesting.

I also think they're explaining the need for social spending wrong. We need to do it to help states so states don't have to lay off people. And the reason we are returning money in the form of credits is so wealthy corporations who already got 8 years of tax cuts don't get more.
