There are definitely some businesses - owners, shareholders, directors - who have not spent every dollar made and conserved their capital in some form or another so that in the event of a catastrophic situation they would be prepared. It's not insane...instead it's prudent to save and invest (not saying it's cash on hand/books). They are not asking for a bailout from anyone, in fact, they are well-positioned to capitalize on the changes and opportunities in their respective markets. Such opportunities would actually be greater if the government did not intervene, so in a way it's kind of perverse that those who sacrificed and saved are being penalized. Every business has a choice and while more popular pathway in modern America may be to live on the edge, it's not unanimous.
