If I had any say, no more bailouts - no more for AIG, or GM or Ford.

Thing is, the government created this mess in the first place, or had a hand in it at least. But, they shouldn't be bailing out all these companies.
I'm trying to figure out where the next $2 trillion is supposed to come from. And what if it gets worse, and the bailout costs goes up to $5 trillion? Why should the taxpayers have to foot that bill?
