Just another thing on the long list of things that children will be studying about 50 years from now that the worst president in history done.

That's one of the reasons The government should not "bailout" corporations. Let them go through bankruptcy or fail.

I fully agree with this. I was a night manager at a Pizza Place that went out of business. Where was our bailout?

If a company mismanaged their funds it should be on them.

and if management does something illegal they should be prosecuted

If all of these companies that took the bailout would of have went bankrupt, we would be much further along right now IMO.
We sure as hell havent moved up any since.

I can't seem to find the link but when the bailouts were announced, someone did a comparison of how better it would be to just take that same money and give it to tax paying citizens. The theory was that this would stimulate the economy and in the end save these businesses.

Same for me, and then some...
