I feel cheated (again).

First I used to own stock in many viable companies, and some viable save for excessive debt load (and some others positive on an operating basis yet creditors managed a steal because company management was weak and inept - sigh).
There were cases where perhaps as little as 10 Million would have been enough to help the company make it through dire times (example 2002).

Now the government is lending and forgiving billions to companies who have operating losses for years; and at least one of them should be shut for good so that possibly the other will make it. How much have they paid in taxes; have they paid taxes at all or were the gains "offshore" as in so many cases?

I ask for not less than, "End the Zombie dance now, Pull the Plug!"
