Well you see it was a mistake to lever up because now your company's failed. Bailing out companies that got leveraged up to their eyeballs just rewards companies that take as much risk as possible. Does that sound healthy to you?

Welcome to business. This is how it works.
ISTM Congress just decided that. In the absence of their recent bailout decision, business would work in some other fashion, which many taxpayers would perceive as more fair.
It only works like that because we dont let you fail. We should change that.
So the collective owes you a bailout, so you can gamble some more?
