I see what you are saying, but on the other hand, the biggest part of me is like...
so what?
If we continue with these ridiculous bailouts, I see no way that we can possibly ever dig out from the mountain of debt. Rather than prolong that agony, I'd personally rather let the chips fall where they may now.
I might feel differently about that if I had any faith that we as a nation were going to learn anything from this, but I don't. We collectively live beyond our means, and someday, the piper is going to have to get paid.
