Quick, how many billions in the red are taxpayers on the bailout of GM? AIG? Fannie and Freddie? Is it true that the government has reaped a profit from bailing out the banks?
It should be easy to find answers to such questions. But while it\’s a snap to find rosy administration claims about the bailout, finding hard numbers is much more difficult.
