The long line of AMTRAK bailouts.

Chrysler

1994/1995 Mexican peso crisis bailout leading to Nafta.

1995 - Clinton administration gets billions for the International Monetary Fund (IMF), plus the Federal Reserve arranged for a $3.65 billion bailout of its friends in an investment group running a ""hedge fund'' in Connecticut.

Ethanol and farm subsidies.

and on and on and on ...

Just like the Bush administration, I'm sure we can step through just about any past administration and find bailouts. I'm not assigning judgement, but pointing out it's biz-as-usual in politics. Just adding levity to ease the theatrics.
