    All banks that were forced to take $ as loans from the government under TARP (later renamed) were repaid, with interest. So the tax payer was rather unaffected. Atop that, banks that were forced to acquire the crappy institutions who were complicit or left holding the debt, were then fined out the butt with some substantial fines (multiple 10s of Billions of dollars, most of which was directed to consumers / taxpayers).

    Happy to explain who got f-ed in 2007-8 financial crisis, but most is rather well documented in Michael Lewis' book "The Big Short".

    Heard a rumor we may see an EO next week that would ban 'assault' weapons and add a tax to firearms and ammo.

    Surprised that wasn't top on the agenda. I mean with all the scary "white supremacist's " running around gunning people down with their scary black guns and 500 rd double full auto clipazines.
