Bailouts

I have to say the whole "bailout" news is pissing me off. And not for the standard reasons. First, these AIG bonuses could have been forbidden last fall, so the only reason everyone is up in arms about it now is because half of those politicians are going to want to get re-elected. As always, though, the main reason I think it is irrelevant in the grand scheme of things is because of the numbers involved, and sadly, this is best summed up in a cartoon.
