Eh, who exactly is getting bailed out? I think you mean loans, which are expected to be paid back in full (and up until very recently, interest was also paid on these "bail outs" making it a profitable venture for the country doing the lending).

With bail out, I mean you default on the debt and I pay your dept towards a bank.
Nobody has defaulted (yet!).
