    That would be straight up communism

    Not really though. Communism means that the workers own the means of production. Bailing out billionaire-owned corporations is not that.

      Communism also means that the big companies get bail money whenever they struggle financially. It doesn’t matter if in capitalism the big corporations are billionaire owned. The money they are being bailed out with is tax money of the common people.
