    “RMS, a company that estimates insured damage for companies, put the initial estimate [of insured damage caused in the Houston area by Hurricane IKE] in a wide $6 billion-to-$16 billion range. That doesn’t count flood damage or uninsured losses, which certainly will amount to billions more.”

    A government bailout for AIG is effectively a transfer of wealth from the American taxpayer to GS, MS, C et all who are on the other side of these trades.

    Where are the Republican wise guys now that have been advertising that the market will regulate itself?
    Then maybe the Feds should let AIG go?
