This has me conflicted. On the one hand, it's good that this will force corporations to use TARP money to shore up their capital base. On the other hand, wouldn't the Board of Directors have a better idea of how to allocate that money, than the government? But I suppose the fact that they're in this mess indicates otherwise.
Bottom line, I think I agree with Dead0man...
If companies can't remain competitive they need to die. If the people running them suck at running them, then they need to get a regular job like the rest of us jerks. Phuque 'em. That's how it is supposed to work. If it doesn't work that way and you have companies that are "too big to fail" then you make even bigger problems.
