I personally do not like what the bailouts are/were. I will not get a handout if I fail, so that part bugs me. BUT there is no question that it did save jobs, because there would have been a lot of small companies out of business, and then even Ford would have struggled to build cars with a lack of supporting parts. That is easy to see. The amount of jobs saved is not so clear though. Just as well speculate on the unemployment under Kerry with this being his 2nd term if he had won last time. Completely useless as it is pure speculation.
