That's just one. There were millions of dollars handed out to people who didn't need it. Tell ya what - if I had known that it was THAT easy to just take taxpayer money from the fed and use it to pay for luxuries, I would've bought a brand spankin new golf cart, a fully restored vintage Jaguar, and a second home back north - and charged it to the Fed.

Because if elected officials and wealthy corporate suits can do it and get away with it, so should I.

Or maybe - they should be forced to pay those loans back, and be good citizens like the rest of us are expected to be.

The whole thing was an unregulated mess. I personally think the American people own an expensive sewer.
