I wonder why?

I would link it, but the link might be too political...so y'all can easily research it yourself.

The difference though?

The loans were mostly paid back.

And yet, I'll bet a high % who were adamantly against the auto loans and the hundreds of thousands of people it helped keep a job...have no problem with paying large corporate farms for self-inflicted wounds.
