Bailouts for Bunglers
By PAUL KRUGMAN
Question: what happens if you lose vast amounts of other people’s money? Answer: you get a big gift from the federal government — but the president says some very harsh things about you before forking over the cash.
Am I being unfair? I hope so. But right now that’s what seems to be happening....
Granted much of the rest I don't agree with him on, but the lede was great!
