Absolutely.

Governments are stupid to borrow money and waste it, but banks were supposed to be even more stupid to lend money to these reckless institutions called governments, and it's not wrong if these banks pay the price of their stupidity.



Is it stupid though, if the government then bails them out? In the end it's always the poor people that get screwed.


Is the ability to bail them stupid or the instance?

I don't think the ability is stupid. Is the instance? Can't tell.


It's called greed
