4 Good Questions about the Bailout

4 Good Questions about the Bailout from Time's list of 18:

1. How, exactly, is this bailout supposed to 'save' credit markets?

2. Why should Wall Street be bailed out? Won't it just make them all the more eager to engage in risky practices in the future?

3. Would the money be better spent just buying up the mortgages themselves instead of the securities?

4. What is the difference between Wall Street and a casino?
