And if that fails to convince you, then think of this fact. Bank of America has received over $40 Billion in TARP (Bailout) money. They're currently worth $25 Billion. We could have bought every single share of their stock and saved $15 Billion dollars. Instead, we own about 7% of the bank.

Yay for treasury secretaries who used to be CEO of Goldman Sachs!
