Considering that the TARP funds are loans and not gifts, are we losing money or making money on this “Bail Out”? Since the government bought into 35% of CITI, the stock has tripled. I would love to have billions to invest in that wouldn’t you?
Maybe I have more faith in the government then most, but putting the politics aside and any affiliation with republicans or democrats, I can say I do trust the powers that be. At the end of the day the only thing a president has after he/she is gone is their legacy. If the government is making money on TARP and rates have stayed low despite invalidated inflation concerns, I think they know something we don’t. Call it a secret stash of money, there has to be a more grandious reason why Obama feels he can spend without regard and I take solice in this. Or, maybe ignorance can be bliss. The fact is most of us can’t change the outcome so we might as well think happy thoughts
