"Wall Street moguls" were not bailed out.
The govt. injected capital into the banking system to restore investor confidence and stem a run on the whole US banking system due to the Lehman collapse and subsequent credit freeze panic.
The nine "Wall Street moguls" that were forced to accept the TARP capital injection have paid it all back with profit to the govt., except for Citibank.
Congress has enumerated and implied powers to regulate commerce and the monetary system.

Congress didn't create the hundreds of trillion dollar CDS market and the trillion dollar mortgage CDO market.
Congress got out of the way of Ron Paul's "Liberty and the Free Market" and let it have it's way.
"Liberty and the Free Market's " way caused the Great Recession when "Liberty and the Free Market's" Lehman Bros' bankruptcy caused a "Liberty and the Free Market" global credit freeze.
