Re "bail out main street" - yes, actually. What I wanted Congress to do was pour some money into stabilizing mortgages and making it possible for people whose payments just unexpectedly jumped just as they lost their jobs, to pay back those mortgages more gradually later on when the jobs came back, while staying in their homes. In other words, a very similar idea to the financial system bailouts.
