Bail outs for fraud are needed when the fraud is so grand as to threaten the world economy. Not every fraud gets bailed out, but this CDO, no doc underwriting, sell it-then-spin-it, leveraged hedge fund, SIV, SPE will be excused by all central banks along with fiscal welfare too. This is NOT a sub-prime mortgage problem, rather it is a GLOBAL CREDIT PARALYSIS crisis.

HF Long Term Capital Management was bailed out in September 1998.

They just guessed wrong on hedging interst rates (sound familiar?)

Bill Gross wants fiscal bail outs--not monetary which might hurt his Pac Life portfolio (everyone chimes in with personal issues)

Hedge Fund Bailouts coming (sad but necessary)
http://www.progressive-economics.ca/2007/08/13/hedge-funds-and-bailouts/

Inaction lead to these consequences:
Stock Market Crash of 1929---No bailout assistance, 10 year depression
Barings Bank (1995)---No bail out assistance, sold for One British Pound
Arthur Andersen---Enron accounting fraud and DOJ contempt---gone

btw: Central Banks will NOT clean up the fraud---only add steroids and trauma care via lower rates and open market junk paper buybacks. No regulation for Hedge Funds is expected. So expect more fraud.

Q: Why will capitalism always survive?

A: Because socialism will always be used to save it.
I (unusually) have to agree with you, Wurm. It is interesting how the bastions of capitalism and entrepreneurial spirit are lining up for a good old Government handout.
Here in Australia, for some reason that has bypassed me, our Government is plugging taxpayer moolah into a private childcare chain that is showing its belly to the sky. This chain is headed by an entrepreneur who was held up to the public as a stirling example of what a savvy individual can achieve.
I'm sure there are other child care centres / banks / car manufacturers who are sitting there thinking "What's wrong? I didn't bugger up enough to deserve a handout?"
Interesting times.
