No money to bail out the banksters either.

Actually, that money was a loan. And, it was all paid back. On the other hand, repayment of the loan to GM was about $10 billion short.

But, so that you understand the magnitude: TARP was about $1 trillion. Social Security's unfunded liability is about $24 trillion.

We’re still bailing out the banksters. Everybody knows about the original $700 billion, few know about the $10 trillion (and counting) that followed. So no, they haven’t “paid it back”.
