We all just paid more than a trillion dollars to socialize bad debt from formerly unregulated mortgage banks in order to avert what economists are calling a second Great Depression.

Ask. Ask. Ask.
I overheard someone on cable news today quote the following maxim: Wealth is privatized, but debt is socialized. I wonder if the Republicans understand, as Jonathan Alter mentioned on Rachel Maddow's show tonight, that President Bush and Treasury Secretary Paulson became socialists today.
