What's wrong with the $700B bailout is that it's such a round number. Maybe it was really 701 billion dollars and they rounded down. Or maybe it was 699 billion dollars and they rounded up. Either way, there's at least a billion dollars unaccounted for or overaccounted for. And either way I'd be more than happy to turn that rounding error into a yacht full of hookers.
