Ron Hart argues Congress mishandled the AIG bailout and warns against bigger government. He criticizes bonuses at AIG, points to Democratic and Obama links to AIG donations, and likens government intervention to meddling that harms private business. He urges free markets and criticizes credit default swaps and political theatrics. He notes Pelosi and Dodd disputes, cites deficits, and calls for limited government.
