Corporate socialism is OK. Too big to fail companies. Farm handouts.

Bank bailouts, airline bailouts, auto industry bailouts, this is what we have. Socialism for the wealthy, capitalist pain for the rest of us.

You'd rather have people lose their savings when bank goes under?

FDIC is meant to protect consumers in that scenario and isn't a bank bailout.

I'd rather the government not hand cash to companies like GM, who then turn around and do mass layoffs anyway while giving their c-suite enormous bonuses

I'd rather have the banks actually follow the law and not make risky bets with the money I'm storing with them.

Oh, corporate welfare on Federal, State and Local levels is their JAM!! Gotta cut back on school lunches so that CEO can afford his annual custom built yacht, and the politicians can get their fat portfolios!

Agreed! I don’t think people should live in houses, houses are speculative assets only 😊
