Anybody else see the U.S. credit rating drop?

Which in the end takes taxes, most of which do not come from the rich, to support private businesses, owned and profited from by the rich. Why is it OK for the government to bail out a failing business? You don’t think another business can take its place to employ those people? You can’t call people “commies” and then say it’s ok for the government to intervene in commerce, denying others a chance to prosper with a straight face. If you can bail out business for the good of the nation, you can tax the rich more for the good of the nation.

I didn’t say at any point that the bailouts were a good thing. I just know what the government was trying to accomplish, and that’s all I stated. I also didn’t call you or Vlad commies, or at any point say that it’s ok for the government to intervene in commerce.
