Look around chum, at the new roads and bridges, schools, teaching jobs. jobs for people of color where they can really be hired and work on their merits, low tuition, increasing housing ownership because people have money...oh, wait.

It appears that the money went to bank$ter/donors, in the mistaken belief that keeping them pumped up on the backs of tens of millions of people newly in poverty or near poverty, millions of families foreclosed on and thrown in the streets, education funding reduced and student loan indebtedness increased would somehow be good for the nation.

Never mind. You had it right.
