bailout

In a financial context, this term carries a heavy political and emotional charge. It often implies a sense of unfairness or "moral hazard," where a company is rescued from the consequences of its own poor decisions using public funds. It is frequently used in critical journalistic and political discourse to describe government intervention in the economy.

In aviation, the term is purely technical and descriptive, referring to the physical act of emergency egress. While the financial sense is often debated and contentious, the aviation sense is a matter of safety procedure and survival.
