In a speech yesterday, Congressman Brad Sherman told the House that the only way "they" could pass the bill, aka Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 was "by creating and sustaining a panic atmosphere" and that that atmosphere is not justified. The Congressman then went on to say that many of his colleagues were told that if they voted against the bill (on Monday) that:
"the sky would fall, the market would drop two or three thousands points the first day, another couple of thousand the second day, and a few members were even told that there would be martial law in America if we voted no".
