Sam L asked:


Government bailout means injecting the money into a company. By bailing out, does it mean the government would get more share?

For example, government injected 85m to AIG, so now government is a larger shareholder of the AIG?

      That is exactly what it means and also means that it is one step closer to a socialist government!

      It means because of Bush’s deregulation of banks and other businesses over the last 8 years caused this financial meltdown. This recession or depression or whatever you call it was caused by lack government oversight and these banks ran wild! This proves that these banks need oversight or babysitting to keep this from happening again. You know what they say…when the cat is away, the mice will play.
