OK, let's see if I got this right. Government assistance to the middle class = BAD. Government assistance to multi-billion dollar global corporations = GOOD. Does that about cover it?
The government announced an $85,000,000,000 bailout plan for AIG. AIG is yet another one of those financial behemoths that got in trouble over the mortgage/credit crisis. A self-inflicted crisis, by the way.
I love the way the government keeps stepping up to the plate to bail out these corporations which are only in trouble because of slimy business practices in the first place.
Wasn't it John McCain who blamed homeowners for the mortgage mess. Back in March, he said it wasn't the government's job to rescue people who were facing foreclosure because of their own irresponsibility. It will be interesting to hear what he has to say about the AIG bailout.
