- For utilitarianism I think it would be best for a government to bailout a bank to keep them in business. The five largest banks in the United States made up for more than 50% of the economy. If one of these banks were to fail, there would be a massive tank of the US economy, affecting most if not all of the population. Even though the government is using tax-payer to pay for the banks, it is still is the populations best-interest to make sure one of the largest sources of income don’t fall out.
