Agree , but what I don't get is why everybody thinks this is such a great amount of money the gov would be giving up. People this is peanuts in the grand scheme of things. But if they had to give the same amount back it would be holy hell from the media !

You really understand how it'd be spun! Completely agree. I've said similar things here. You've nailed it. The news articles are already being written now by the TBTF lobbyists who will feed them to the many dumb reporters out there. They will start a "national conversation" about bailouts when the time is right for them.
