Should taxpayer dollars be used to bail out a private company?

Less than a week after the Federal Government declined to bail out Lehman Brothers from going bankrupt, they orchestrated an $85 Billion bailout of AIG. Do you think the government should continue to bail out companies with taxpayer money, or should they let Capitalism play it's course and allow the companies to fail?

no, the only problem is the government butt rapes CEOs already with extreme taxing (and wealth redistribution) that right now it's only fair (and probably not even enough) that corporations can get bail outs.

but i believe in a truly capitalist society where the government stops ass raping everyone with taxes and "ZOMG, WE GOTS TO HELP THE POOR GUYS".
