Credit Crunch

I think it is disgrace for the government to even be considering bailing out stupid banks unless we are about to have a full-blown recession. If these capitalists are daft enough to gamble huge amounts of money they why should the government bail them out? This is after all a capitalist country we live in the big city bankers have to take the ruff with the smooth. Also why is a two year low in big deals such big news?
