Backdoor Bailouts & Scrap Metal

2) They convince the Federal Reserve (which the big banks are part-owners of) to buy up these "toxic assets" at way above market price.

3) The Federal Reserve creates massive amounts of money out of thin air to buy up all of these troubled assets. The public is told that all of this "quantitative easing" is necessary to stimulate the U.S. economy.
