I can't understand this bailout thing at all. If my job gets outsourced or if I get replaced by a computer/robot, do I get a "bailout"? Why is it that industries who were monopolies for so long, who had decades upon decades to innovate but didn't, feel entitled to help from taxpayers? Not all bailouts are bad of course, but this is ridiculous, isn't it?
EDIT:
New York City, for example, auctioned 368 medallions between November 2013 and February 2014. Trading for around $1.2 million each, that injected almost half a billion dollars into the city’s coffers.
Jeez! Half a billion for driving taxis!
