You can't keep the banking system from collapsing by giving someone $4500 for their old car.
I wasn't referring to saving the banking system when I mentioned cash for clunkers. I was referring to programs that helped the general public.
The banking system didn't need saving. Some small banks needed saving. They weren't aided. Many collapsed. The bailout was a tremendous fraud upon the people of the United States.
The banking system needs reform and oversight. Neither of which came from the bailout. Neither of which are forthcoming from Congress.
