I'm a little hazy on which bailout is which. Was this the "too big to fail" bailout? If so, back when it happened, I was able to download a file that listed every corporation that received bailout money, and they each received just a few percent (typically about 5%) of their net worth, which meant that they COULD have made up their shortfalls by selling off assets, but of course, they didn't want to do that, they want all of us to pay for their mistakes. I was so infuriated at the time to see this, and once again, no "news" talking head, ANYWHERE, brought this up. Sort of like no "news" talking head has ever brought up the fact that Iran has never, and will never, need ANYTHING associated with nuclear power, since they have enough oil to last 1000 years (for their own consumption).
