not at the level they are bailing out. it is all about "bad paper". banks could care less about what the loan is for. they are concerned ONLY about the value of the "paper".... does it yield a profit or not. the rise or fall in the actual assets value decides if the "paper" is rewritten or not (house sold).
in this case a lot of the paper is bad because the money was loaned at risk factors higher than normal.... many banks are facing NO problem because they did not get slimy.
