Wall Street Saved by poor taxpayers money, business as usual

Well, well, well, Republicans and Democrats both voted to save Wall Street firms again. Did we expect anything else? Not me. It is business as usual in the heart of capitalist world. Taxpayers money is used as usual to foot the bill for saving the bungling big firms. They are allowed to gamble with other people's money, to lose billions of dollars, to pay themselves hefty bonuses, and whenever they push the firms over the brink and into the abyss because of their intense greed, the government is there to save them. So, why should they care? Why do we expect them not to repeat the same mistakes again and again. When there is no punishment, when there is always government waiting there to be called to save you, why should you care how much money you lose through your greedy acts, especially that it is other people's money, not yours.

Will the American government ever put a penny into public health care or free education in the university? NO, of course not. It is a free market man! Government is not supposed to help the public in a free market, it only helps the fat cats. But when the fat cats need money, yes, we are there to pay you a trillion dollar out of the same poor people's money. So it is only free market for the poor people, who are left to drawn without any help.
