...scheduled 2009 fee, banks will pay the FDIC all of the fees that they believe they will owe the agency through the end of 2012. But even though the banks will make those payments this year, they won't show up on 2009 income statements. Instead, each bank will add an asset, a big one, to its balance sheet, right below where the cash they just handed over to the FDIC used to be. It will be called something like prepaid FDIC premiums.

That's because the same accounting that allows banks to hide the costs will prevent the FDIC from marking up its own assets. Just as the banks get to add an asset to their balance sheet for the money they are prepaying, the FDIC has to book a liability for the money that it has received from the banks but is not actually entitled to yet.

So the only stuff left is esoteric, and it attracts fewer participants because the only editing jobs left are "janitorial" - making sure that articles are well formatted and readable...
...does objecting to all legislation serve your constituents? -Richard English, Mission Viejo, Calif. I vote against all spending - even spending that I might justify - unless it doesn't add to the deficit, because debt is a monster and it has driven us to the point of bankruptcy. I think my constituents' best interests are served by voting against all excessive spending. Evidently, they must understand it to some degree, because up until now I've been re-elected...
