I just watch Too Big To Fail and I know it was based on a book but I wonder how accurate the author was.
It was a great flick but you have to be careful about documentaries...nearly all of them are pushing some sort of biased agenda.
ETA: If you liked that I also highly recommend Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room
Yeah I figured there was some bias going on somewhere, but for what it is, it was a good movie. I really want to believe that how Paulson and Geithner were in the movie was factual.
I look out for it, thanks for the tip.

Just about every credit card company will give you one. 
Credit card companies give interest free loans but charge a one-time 3-4% transaction charge.

Also, the majority of the money that WAS loaned to the banks during the bailout (TARP) has been repaid. AIG, I think is the main one that has not..

For that bit of financial wizardry, credit outspoken CEO Robert Benmosche, who's defying all odds turning around the beleaguered insurance giant. The company has repaid billions to the government -- including its entire obligation to the Fed -- and regained access to credit and debt markets. A recent move: unloading two insurance units for $37 billion

Also obligatory reminder of the free market at work...

Ironically each of those kids have worked harder and done more to support the economy than all the Outpost-paulbots together.

Every time you use a credit card its an interest free loan to provide you liquidity. There is no additional cost to using a card.
These are even more friendly than the Fed loans since you dont have to provide collateral to use a credit card.
There are some real good potential criticisms of the Fed.

No credit card company is going to offer any of us a one billion dollar interest free overnight loan.

The reason the rich got so rich is because of the federal reserve system. Unless you fix the root problem it doesn't matter how much you tax them, we will continue on the inevitable consequence of a failed monetary and moral economic system.

Yes because the Fed invented rich people.

obviously not
But Rich people did invent the Fed so that they could continue to be rich and not have to work... This is part of the core idea that this country was founded to fight against and prevent, not support and foster.
