CO laid off 12,000 people two days after the attacks. This screams of poor mismanagement and inability to run a tight company. What did the bailout do for them?

How many other industries should the US taxpayer bail out? Insurance? Hospitality? What about companies like Boeing? What about small businesses greatly affected who do not have the leverage of paid lobbyists that the airline industry has?

I was and am horrified that the US immediately gave away $15 billion to the airline industry. 120,000 industry-wide are still laid off.
