I think I agree with your sentiment, but for the record, TARP recovered $441.7 billion from $426.4 billion invested, earning a $15.3 billion profit. The banks paid the 2008 bailout back with interest.

The more recent one leaves me a little salty. If you invest more than 250k in a bank heavily invested in crypto, I don't know if we should help you.

I know I wasn't very coherent in my argument it just pisses me off that anytime some rich asshole is about to lose it all our government jumps in with our tax dollars to help them out but we can't get clean water to Flint, Michigan. We subsidize big business and give massive tax breaks and when they decide to close a plant down we don't make them fix the land it sat upon instead creating the superfund, shit like that. As the other person said, we have a whole nation of failing infrastructure yet our politicians keep squandering our tax dollars on shit that just further adds to the gap between us and the 1%. I don't even know if that's correct or coherent but it's what I feel and if Trump can just blurt out bullshit, so can I. In conclusion I'd rather give a trillion dollars to Ukraine before giving Wells Fargo 1 cent.
