When AIG was bailed out, I didn’t like it, but I understood it needed to be done to protect hard working Americans with insurance policies and annuities.

Why should I be be bailing out a zillion dollar company?

Why should I bail out your investments, retirement funds etc?

Are you going to bail out the tens of thousands facing foreclosures?

Are you going to bail me out if I make an investment that goes belly up?

If not, why not?

I heard that AIG will be paying back the “loan”, but paying back to whom? Not the taxpayer who footed the “loan”! So the gubmint will sop up a zillion “if” it is, indeed, paid back.

Is that a rhetorical question, or are you serious?

Unless you mailed a check to AIG, you're not bailing them out.
