[Lord Tammerlain]

Here is a list of all the financial institutions that have received money from the $700 billion dollar bailout program

It is not quote friendly

A few interesting ones include

Blackrock, which is a hedge fund received $3.3 billion. Why a hedge fund was bailed out is beyond me.

Goldman got $10 billion, but has payed it back

Quite a few investment funds received bailout money by the looks of it

Blackrock, which is a hedge fund received $3.3 billion. Why a hedge fund was bailed out is beyond me.

BlackRock is not a hedge fund. After it assumed control of Barclays Global Investors last year, it became the world's largest investment asset management company, with more than $3 trillion under management. The money BlackRock received was not a bailout of the firm, but used to fund the entity that became part of the government's "Public-Private Investment Program" to entice private investors to buy some of the crappy mortgage-based derivatives banks held on their balance sheets.
