U.S. Bailout Costs May Reach $23.7 Trillion, TARP Inspector Says

its not money spent. but the problem is that US taxpayer was on the hook
for around 12T as of yesterday knowledge to the public (not money spent too - only 1-2T for spend, but in case of big troubles it could easily double or triple), while the truth is he is on the hook for almost 24T.
good luck guys.
