A Question On Rmoney's Stand On Bailouts In General....

Rmoney indicated that he thought that the auto industry shouldn't have been helped out by the government and they should have just been left to go through bankruptcy.

What is/was Rmoney's position on the bank bailouts? Would he have preferred that they just be left alone and see what happens based on market forces or did he support them being bailed out?

Does he have a double standard between the auto industry and the banking industry? Or has he been consistent?

Seems to me that Repugs in general would have wanted the banks to be bailed out - because if the government didn't come to their aid - many of them as well as their rich buddies might have lost a lot of money.
