This bailout c**p comes up every few months. Republicans and their corporate cronies bark constantly about how the government should play no role in business. And then when a massive corporation is failing miserably, along comes the government with millions and millions of taxpayer dollars to bailout their business cronies. And at the same time, the government won't approve an extension in unemployment benefits for the common worker who is making peanuts. What a country.

Answer 1

The government was considering giving Fannie and Freddie access to the Fed's emergency lending program as one option to prop up the firms, said Sen. Christopher Dodd, ***D-Conn.,***

You are just being reactionary in placing blame.
