All the Bull associated with the bailout was simply another Bush Buddy plan to provide money to expand businesses not as was explained. The bailed out banks aren't lending they are merging expanding their own holdings with our tax dollars upon which we are paying interest. Just anotherscam from the people who start wars under false pretenses.
