What would happen if someone did not bear witness in the Holocaust?

The wording of the question seems to suggest that most people did in fact 'bear witness' (by standing up for what is right), but many just didn't want to know about Nazi atrocities and genocide. Many people did not fall that easily into the two categories of those who 'bore witness' and those who did not. Many were 'bystanders' ... but even division into three categories is open to criticism.

Why did the American government bail out Bear Stearns?

The public justification is that the fall of a large company like Bear Stearns could cause a ripple effect that would take down other companies, perhaps the entire American economy. Many Americans are skeptical of this reasoning, suspecting that perhaps bribery of various members of Congress and their staffs is the more likely motivation for such massive assistance. In truth, no one knows what would happen if a firm as large as Bear Stearns collapsed. The only way to truly know would be to let it happen, and since there is the strong possibility of a "ripple effect," it would seem prudent to avoid an experiment of that nature.
