[quote user="TheAntiGates"][quote user="solzrules"] <P>And why would they need to make that information public? Does the bank make all of your financial information public so the talking heads can scrutinize it when you ask for a loan? And who would provide neutral oversight on the government? The courts? Democrats? The AntiGates? What business is it of theirs? </P> <P> </P> <P>[/quote]<BR><BR>I don't borrow money from the "public", and if I did I am sure every tidbit of the proceedings would be both part of the public record as well as "discoverable" by any entity having an acute interest.<BR><BR>It is US taxpayer money being put on the line here. <BR><BR>But, why not a compromise solution? why not an independant review committee, that way all the irrelevant skeletons in DM&E's closet can be kept confidential, with just relevant information pertaining to the ability to repay the loan made public?<BR><BR>Might be interesting to see which politico's DM&E has made campaign contributions to, over tha past 5 years. Is there any reason why you think THAT information should be suppressed as well?<BR><BR>[img]http://img223.imageshack.us/img223/750/pingpongpaddledj4.gif[/img] ???<BR>[/quote]</P> <P>AG,</P> <P>You and your conspiracy theories - it is not apt for this forum.</P> <P>All corporations have sensitive internal information that is not germaine to public scrutiny. I'm sure BNSF and UP have some secrets they hope never get out, does that disqualify them for the federal money they have recieved in the past, are recieving now, and will recieve in the future?</P> <P>If so, I'm sure AG will be the first to demand full public accounting of all such internal data from the Big Two western railroads. Because for AG to continue to rant about a DM&E conspiracy theory while ignoring the BNSF and UP conspiracies would make AG a big fat hypocrite, wouldn't it?</P>
