To put these bail outs in another perspective..
The US population is about 301,000,000 +/- counting every man, woman and child, so 200,000,000 might be a fair stab at adults 18 and up.
AIG is getting a $85 billion dollar bail out..
If you divide 200 million adults - 18+ into $85 billion - that equals $425,000.00 per person. The full 700 billion would give every man woman and child a few million dollars each.
In short the US govt could buy every adult man and woman a new house, new car then pay for their kids college and give it too them for free and still pay less money. Thats how much this bail out will steal from the tax payer.
