Washington Mutual Failure and Collapse: WaMu Largest Savings and Loan Failure in U.S. History.
The Rise and Fall of Washington Mutual.



Washington Mutual also known as WaMu, failed Thursday making it the biggest savings and loan failure in the history of our country. What makes this event more astounding that it comes on the heels of stalled bailout talks regarding the absurd and poorly planned $700 billion bailout package. A recent CBS News and New York Times poll shows that only 16 percent of people actually think the plan is a good idea. If that is the case, why are politicians pushing so hard to get this thing rammed down the throats of Americans? Could it actually be that tomorrow is the target adjournment date and many of these politicians simply want to go back to their districts to campaign?
