Are we then going to pour more money back into the banks who are going to loose more money? Even if the government would pay the refinance closing costs it would have saved 100's of billions of dollars.

But, giving the bail out money to corporations that were complete failures was unwise. If one advocates "bail outs" it would have been wiser to have "invested" in corporations that were not failures, giving them enough money to buy out the failing corps, and turn them into fruitful corps. I usually get into corruption. I just don't feel like it right now. Figure it out, it should be obvious. Well, the bailout wasn’t necessarily a "bad Idea" although I certainly do not agree with it.
