I mean.... personally? I don't feel like this is actually that much of a hot take. More of a verifiably good idea.
The bailout is the government purchasing shares at about to go bankrupt prices. It's a reasonable take that isn't even really a change in the system.
See....that's the kind of logic that gets people places!

That sounds a lot like socialism and we don’t do that in this here land of the free 🦅
And yet the "free" market can't be trusted to correct itself and fill the gaps if we allow a giant megacorp to fall.
