From the Business and Media Institute:
"The result of the bailout culture that now exists on Capitol Hill will be incredibly high rates of inflation down the road as the economy picks back up and prices reflect the amount of new money circulating through the economy."
There are certainly going to be knock-on effects of flooding the market with all the newly printed money required by the bailouts, but I don't think most folks are really thinking that far ahead. You think times are tough now? Wait until you don't have a job and everything is inflating as fast as gasoline did over the last two years.
