Barney Frank On Auto Bailouts, Tells 60 Minutes A Bailout Would Help People, Not Companies - CBS News

“No. We’re not propping up companies. That’s your mistake,” he tells Stahl, who had asked him about taxpayer money going to prop up companies that had made bad decisions. “We’re propping up individuals. The world doesn’t consist of companies. The world is people. The country is people.”

When Stahl points out that Frank is then talking about welfare, he responds, “Yeah, I’m for welfare. You’re not? Are you for letting people starve?”

At least Frank is honest. He’s out to save the unions. If he could figure out a way to do that as well as crush the capitalist car companies, he would.

And he thinks he has figured out that way - nationalize the automakers.
