Official narrative
The Official narrative about bailouts is confused and not regularly discussed by commercially-controlled media.
Concerns
One phrase which crops up is that banks are "too big to fail", which might suggest that they were too big. Bailouts however are effectively a huge transfer of wealth from taxpayers to those invested in the banks, a policy which increases the wealth of those banks, which increase wealth inequality. Bailouts are faits accomplis, not subject to even a nominal democratic control or performance review.
