I was totally against the bailouts in the first place. As far as I’m concerned, if a business is not run properly, it should not be in business. Granted, thousands more people would be in the unemployment line, but I think the companies that are doing things right would grow and take over the spots vacated the those that for so long felt “entitled.” Ergo, more jobs.

But, today I hear that AIG, and other big insurance companies, banks, etc., will be receiving more money down the road. This first check was just an installment. Are we going to keep throwing good money after bad? There are plenty of good, solid banks in my small community that don’t think they are owed a thing “just because” and would love to take the spot of those that do. And do a better job.
