There are some people who talk a lot about the bail out(s) but have no real idea exactly what or which bailout they are talking about. I did a quick search (cuz I like to see da facts) and came up with this little tidbit for your perusal.

History of US Gov't Bailouts 1970 - 2009 Total in 2008 $'s 2.1044 Trillion = 15% of the current National debt going to bail out Business's and especially 'well run' Banks with high paid executives who are above reproach or prosecution.
