    This Discussion Would Be Irrelevent .....

    If the Congress had done the right thing to start with and bailed out nobody ......... then no one would be arguing about who should be bailed out.

    These bastards who profited from their leverage games (and have hundreds of millions in their bank accounts to prove it) were bailed out ...... in China, they would have probably been arrested, stripped of their assets, tried in public and hanged.

    Too bad the USA is more corrupt than China.
