Obviously some people believe that if you live above your means and spend more than you make, you shouldn't be personally responsible for your mistakes, especially if there are thousands of idiots in the country, then you should make the thousands of responsible people, like myself, cover your ass because you want your pricey BMW with your 2000sqft house and swimming pool. You also work at a 40k year job and can't afford any of it, but hey, we should spend trillions to fix your problems.

Honestly, people should be evicted form their homes, they can always move into apartments, so no big loss there, they still have shelter. Businesses that aren't profitable should go under, as obviously not enough people want to pay a high enough price for their products, and what they are doing is a waste of human resources. Those people would be hired by a new entrepreneur who needed labor with a business idea that would make money, hence helping the economy.

Here is a question for you. The government is buying up all the debt and promising that they will make the money back. Well, if that were the case, how come no private company is buying up the debt and making easy profit? Obviously no one wants to do what the government is doing, and if that is the case, that says that they are wasting their $$$. Let the market fail and someone with money will step in, buy up all the debt, and turn a nice profit while companies turn themselves around thanks to private companies helping them out. Instead we have the government trying to do the same thing, but at the same time they are destroying the dollar and increasing taxes which hurts the companies and employees they are trying to help.

The governments job should be to protect the citizens, not manage the economy. They should provide basic necessities to life that private companies can't provide (stuff like roadways, since a toll system would be insane), and provide protection for their citizens. Obviously the government should step in economic wise to prevent companies from abusing monopolies, but the market should be allowed to do whatever it needs to do, and if someone makes a mistake, the market should fix it (if there is a chance to make money, someone will)
