Easy solution - ask for another bailout.

Someone asked me if I was against all bailout - yes, if I remember correctly, I was. I surely am now. They already established a bad precedent, when that stupid volcano erupted the airlines were asking the .gov to be compensated for their "downtime" and their lost revenue.. WTF kinda business is that?
