Report: Treasury to Bail Out Life Insurance Companies
-----------------------------------------------------



Back in the United States, the Wall Street Journal is reporting the
taxpayer-funded bailout will soon extend to the life insurance industry.
Treasury officials are set to announce plans to use money from the
Troubled Asset Relief Program, or TARP. Only life insurance companies
that own federally chartered banks will be eligible.
