He's getting a lot of pushback in the comments from liberals.
It's pretty unpopular all around and we all need to demand our state politicians to put pressure on Congress to stop this bailout or we want out of the union.

Bank bailouts are always unpopular, but a collapse in the system is catastrophic.
Bailouts should be contingent on the company avoiding ESG investment and focusing solely on profit to pay back the taxpayer.
I.e., if you bail out one bank, banks will not take precautions because they believe they will be bailed out, and you can expect to bail out every bank from here on out until you stop bailing out banks altogether.
Same thing with amnesty - we've granted amnesty like 5x and each time we were told it would be the last amnesty. Despite that, more illegals keep coming to this country because they believe we'll eventually pass another amnesty. And lord knows our politicians would love to give it to them while telling us that this time it will be the last amnesty for real!
I agree.
But at the same time, we could use bailout conditions to force the banks to play fair. I also think that the general public is not really prepared for a major bank collapse, even if it is deserved and necessary.
