Default OT - Can we afford to fix the banks?

"So far, Treasury has invested more than $162 billion in 207 banks. The
department set aside $250 billion from the bailout fund to be used for
direct investments in banks."

If I keep handing you piles of money to pay for your stupidity, do you have
any incentive to fix the problem?

The bankers have learned from the doctors. We can't afford to find cure
for vastly profitable diseases, either....




Who will save your grandchildren??
