Is it possible that when the 2008 stock market crash happened and they bailed out the banks that if they had not bailed out the banks, it...?

It was Bullshit made up by Democrats on their rise of deficit that end in a 19 Trillion Dollar more debt

wishful thinking

I was active in the stock market during the crash of 08. I took Warren Buffet's advice and lost a small sum of money. I used my inexperience and won a pile of money. That was during the sub-prime loan debacle and the housing market was also in a crash. I had very little money in the bank but what I had was in Bank of America. I don't think Bank of America asked for a bail out but GM did. Ford refused a bail out and today I only drive Ford.

Banks that were "Too Big to Fail" hold the majority of the US Government pension funds
