Then just imagine all that wonderful tax revenue generated by the bank bailout.

That's happening too, though it wasn't the thread's topic (nor will the tax revenue be as high as it should due to our screwy tax laws on the investor class (particularly hedge fund managers)).

Do you expect the GOP to admit it was also wrong with its incessant TARP criticism (nothwithstanding the fact it started under Dubya)?

Actually there has been an economic report that the deficit would have been half again as much in 2009 without the government intervention and the actions of the fed.
