I agree. They should let the businesses fail, or struggle, or do whatever it is they're going to do, and use the bailout money to rescue the investors/depositors who are innocent of wrongdoing (technically) and only getting caught in the fallout. And that bailout should be graduated on a sliding scale, based on 2007 income tax returns: the higher your income, the smaller your bailout.
