Though this question is moot at this point. My response is absolutely not!

I have said all along that this Bush Policy of "Too Big Too Fail" was nothing more than the greatest historical rip-off of the American tax payer's dollar ever schemed under any president, to assure that their personal investments in disreputable, but wealthy corporations were protected, and given trillions of dollars while millions of Americans lost their jobs and homes.

Monopolization of a market is illegal in America, yet President Bush assured his wealthy associates that their monopolization of the thriving markets would remain in place, even though these companies broke every law conceivable to profiteer off of the American Citizens.

In America when large companies become corrupt, and turn to profiteering, they often go out of business, and that allows for another more reputable supplier of the same services, or product to rise up in it's place.

However, the bailouts, have assured that no smaller reputable companies struggling to bring you a fair price, reduce inflation, provide jobs, and quality of service, can rise up to replace the corrupt failing companies that have raked you over the coals with huge exasperating fees and interest rates.

Instead with the bailouts, we have assured that inflation will remain at it's highest in all of the United States history, job losses have reached the highest since the great depression, and there are almost as many homeless now as there was then.

Through the bailouts we have assured our country's debt will not just be passed on to your grandchildren, and great grandchild, but your great, great grandchild.

All the taxes being taken from you and supplied to these corrupt corporate monsters could have been used to endorse a better health care plan for all Americans, better our education processes, while funding lower income schools so that they do not have to close their doors, and put goodness knows how many teachers, cafeteria, and maintenance workers out of jobs.

There are far better uses for the Trillions of dollars that are now being taken out of your, and my earnings every pay period, than to give some already overly wealthy CEO a bonus for driving the company they are in control of into the ground.

My husband and I just recently purchased medical insurance through his company, but refused the first two policies brought to us for consideration, that were associated insurers of AIG. Just because they change their name, or advertising doesn't mean that the company after 30 years of stealing from you has changed their ways.

And, by the rising cost of inflation, against the drastically dropping incomes of Americans, it is purely evident that the bailouts are not working.

And, now neither are 5 million Americans, that were promised that if they gave up this money to these too big to fail corporations, that they would not lose their jobs.
