Simply put, all the banks get a sweetheart deal, and I don’t think the public will object to a .015 % tax to get the tarp money back

Jeeez louise

And you don;t think the banks will just reduce the interest they pay out, or increase the percenatge of a lolan to recoup the .015% “tax” (over and above the interest they already paid to the gov’t) !?!?!?
“We” GOT the TARP money back ,, WITH interest from the banks

We got only part of it back and even with interest, we’re still due over 150 billion. If you’re comfortable with the banks spending part of those billions in multi million dollar bonuses rather than paying the tax payer back, then oppose the tax.
