In my opinion the bailout was a complete waste of taxpayers money. If these companies failed sure it would be painful but there would be other companies that would rise up and take there place. This is called capitalism. Bailing these failing companies out is only prolonging the misery of a broken economy and placing a burden on our grand children’s children. We need to stop with the bailouts and encourage the entrepreneurial spirit that has made America so great.

I have mixed emotions about the bailout. On the one hand i am concerned about the economy recovery from the recession. but, on the other hand I have real issues with just giving money to for profit companies. I would rather use all of the money for investment in infrastructure and schools. IMHO those investments are much more important than bailing out banks and investment companies.

But, we have been told that not saving these institutions would cause the economy to be even worse than it already is. Well, maybe we should break these institutions up. I don’t think that any one company should be able to hold the US economy hiostage and extort money from the US Gov.

i also agree with you that we need to be responsible for ourselves. Great resources thanks.
