Dear Congress ...
If you don't want banks to spend U.S. government money in ways that benefit them more than your constituents, don't give them a big check with no strings attached. The banks have a legal obligation to their shareholders to make as much money as possible, and none to help your constituents.

Sincerely,
Common Sense

How freaking moronic do you have be to not get the point you just brought up. I mean, I can see not knowing that corporations have a literal legal obligation to their shareholders, but even working off the premise that "if you give a person or a group of people money and don't tell them up front they have to spend it a certain way, don't get pissed when they spend it on whatever the hell they want." Apparently you have to be a government official to be THAT moronic.
