Bailing out OAI would be entirely unnecessary (crowded field) and political suicide (how many hundreds of billions that could have gone to health care instead?)

If it happens in the next 3 years, tho, and Altman promises enough pork to the man, it could happen.

This administration has "committed political suicide" dozens of times this year. What's one more to add to the pile?

Not that I have an opinion one way or another regarding whether or not they'd be bailed out, but this particular argument doesn't really seem to fit the current political landscape.
