I thought most of these, (aig for example), were 2 year loans? Just to tide aig over while they sell off assets to cover the losses and pay back the government...not really a bailout in the "here's some free tax payer money" kind of way.

The real kicker is if an independent business man gets behind in his bills or makes some fucking stupid moves/bad decisions, the government would never bail them out.
