I always find it amusing when people over-interpret short-run movements in financial markets. But, hey, the FT and the WSJ have to sell.

You may very well be right (I also expect the news to be good for stock markets) but do you really think a 0.45% rise in futures means much?

The problem whodey, is that these bailouts are actually necessary. If not, you me and the average joe out there will be out of cash and the financial system will collapse. then you are out of a job and then you are out of your home (unless you own it).

It's the money changers. They've been messing with society for years and years. The solution is to regulate them up the arse so far it hurts. This will slow economic growth but it's the price we'd have to pay for not being subject to the idiocy and greed of bankers and speculators/investors.
