Why should my tax dollars (or yours, for that matter) "invested" in bailout funds go to finance some bastid's yatch? It happens, and you know it.
Again, just my , which is about my net worth also.

That's the governments fault, not the corporations. They should not have handed out that money in the first place. Bush and Obama both are at fault here by handing out our money to all of these corporations. Bailouts didn't work in the Great Depression, and they haven't now. Bush and Obama should have set up restrictions instead of handing out a blank check to companies to do as they wish. And now the gov't blames their mistakes on greed.
