How is it at all possible that the government spends 140 billion to 'rescue' AIG, (and i assume that just means pay off their counter party swap liabilities) and the government magically makes a profit of 15 billion from a company that blew up?? The entire market cap of the newly issued stock isnt even 60 billion.

i don't get it.
