Federal Bail Out

I find it very ironic that taxpayers have bailed out credit card companies, car companies, and banks. The very businesses that are to help jump start the ecomony. Yet, there is very little in the way of help from these companies to the consumer from the news articles that are floating around. I find it sad that someone would contemplate hurting themselves and others because of financial difficulties. Is this the America that we have become? That we are reliant on companies as a moral compass?

I heard that one credit card company is limiting credit cards, but why would that same company send out other credit offers. I hear local car companies ask people to come buy a car but if you get laid off you can just return it without payments. This is junk.
