Am I correct to say it is trillions of federal taxpayer funds that were allocated to bail out private financiers to prevent them from going bankrupt due primarily to a gigantic gambling casino for the elite known as "derivatives"?
From what I can gather, this thing called "derivatives" is a huge issue. We taxpayers have taken on trillions of dollars of debt to cover for these things - this strange animal that we did not create and is not our responsibility - or shouldn't be.
