Be honest, Why are you living in the past? First of all Hartford didn't put up their "personal" assets...it's called "Policyholders Surplus" to pay claims. Dah, Law of large numbers ring a bell? You want to reward failure! How about rewarding people for doing the right thing?

What about the companies that Hurricane Andrew put under? They deserved a bailout according to your thinking. Let's bring them back.

I'm a stones through from the Hartford Home Office. I remember in the 1990's when they lined up the buses outside the home office and gave 500 employees 30 minutes to clean out their desks. I suppose you think it was a good idea to have buses on hand.

If you think they deserve MY MONEY AND YOUR MONEY and the IJ readers MONEY (Bailout)and the gov thinks they've done wonders for the USA, why don't they just go to the Feds and ask. Why do they have to buy a bank (they're so broke they can buy a bank)and go in the back door?

Be honest now, Be Honest, this doesn't make sense and I think you know it!
Have a pleasant day.
