Why didn't the federal government bail out Bernie Madoff ?

Is he that much worse than all those others who fiddled while Wall Street burned and Main Street suffered ? Where is the outrage - I am mad as heck and do not want to take it any more - can anyone furnish Bernie's cell number? (for the purpose of starting a support group).

    That 780 Billion that was to bail out the Companies would have better been spent by dividing that up among the people, Let the people bail out the companies, The math was done in this, It would have amounted to over 40 thousand dollars for evey Tax payer, Now just what could you do with 40 thou?

    Pay off your mortgage That's helps out and bails out those companies.

    Pay off your Credit cards, That pays off the Credit agencies

    Pay off or buy a new Car, That bails out the Auto industry

    I mean really, the list can go on and on, It would pull this Country out virtually overnight.

    BUT noooo The Democrats want a Socialistic Government, so they do it accordingly

    i'm wondering about putting the federal authorities in that's position, lower than the human beings of the u . s . a .. it truly is time to provide the authorities lower back to the human beings and eliminate the stupid corrupted feds (that are frequently liberal scum)

    Interesting viewpoint.

    After all, we'll have to bail out social security.

    Both are ponzi schemes
