Text Wait. Where did the government find another $85b?

Isn’t this government bankrupt?

Aren’t we all $100,000 in debt?

Did I pull those facts out of my ass?

Oh yes, so I did, but the government probably pulled the $85b it used to bail out AIG from its own ass, and guess how it got there? Maybe a bit, just a little bit from our taxes?

So, we pay our taxes and what we have left we give some of to a fairly mandatory lottery (insurance) and then what we already paid in taxes goes to bail those insurers. Haven’t we just paid twice?

Oh, right, we pay twice on a second hand car too.

I’d like to be a government. Can I be a government? Pleeeeeease?
