That's not for you to decide. You have your own moral compass and it doesn't mean you are either right or wrong. Don't force your morals onto others.

The government prints the money. It's not backed by gold and the Fiat currency is essentially not worth the paper it's printed on. Have a read up about fractional reserve banking and see just how much of a con it all is.

And it should have been left to go under. What other business would have been bailed out? If it was any of us the govt would have said "Tough!".

That's very short sighted. The government bailed it out because letting it 'go under' would have had much worse impacts with regard to job loss and damage to the economy.

Would you have let it 'go under' and make 140,000 people jobless?
