we (as in the taxpayer) have been bailing out businesses, banks and even country's to the tune of TRILLIONS if not QUADRILLIONS for the past 2 years.
i'm 100% sure that if any of us visited a casino we would not see above the entrance door a sign that would read "money back guarantee".
the UK is pouring billions of pounds every year to bail-out country's within the EU (on top of our already vast financial commitment to the EU and the bail-out of banks and business) while all our public services are being cut (and soon to be cut), retirement ages raised because of empty pensions that have been raided by the banks (namely JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs), falling wages and our Jobs being off-shored-with VERY little to no return for all these Billions the UK taxpayer is giving away.
the coalition Govt in the UK says we have to put up with "austerity" measures because of the previous Govts "reckless"spending but this Govt has spent FAAAAR more than the previous and they haven't even been in power a year!
the whole planet has a spiralling and exponentially growing debt that can NEVER be repaid to the banks...haven't you guys had and seen enough?
why the hell don't we just get rid of all these central banks and tell them to go **Filtered** themselves when they ask for their money?!
why the hell are we shouldering this debilitating debt?!
why the hell should the UK shoulder more debt to bail-out the EU, i say SCREW THE EU AND SCREW THE BANKS AND BUSINESSES, LET THEM ALL GO BUST!

how the hell is anyone or any business going to learn if we keep bailing them out?! what i'm trying to say hear is that people learn best through their mistakes and bail-outs only serve to reinforce the belief that those that need bailing out did no wrong and are free to do it all again...
this says it in a nutshell:
Progress, far from consisting in change, depends on retentiveness. When change is absolute there remains no being to improve and no direction is set for possible improvement: and when experience is not retained, as among savages, infancy is perpetual. Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.
-George Santayana
anyways, those are obviously my thoughts, what are your thoughts about all these bail-outs?
