Should the economy double dip into another recession or if financial markets ever do collapse again AIG will not be too big to fail. The taxpayers will not tolerate another bailout and the end will come. The failure of AIG to think what happened once will never happen again is truely shortsighted. Greece is on the verge of economic collapse and is going to need World bank help combined with real economic sacrifices is all that will keep Greece going. There is also Italy which is in real financial straights. When countries start to fail economicly the proverbial shit is really going to hit the fan. The public will not support a repeat of the past mistakes by financial institutions and will let them fail regardless of the outcome. Fool me once shame on me, fool me twice shame on you but we won't get fooled again.

Instead of Kings, Queens, dukes, barons, earls and other aristocracy we now have CEO's, COO's, Corporate Presidents and vice presidents who have taken their place. Freedom has become a joke since the elitist Bush administration allowed the financial groups to rip the world off to line their own pockets. When we as a people complain it seems that we have to bow and scrap for whatever the new aristocrat is willing to allow us to have and all in the name of free enterprise.
Free enterprise is great as long as those in charge don't abuse the system but when they do it is let them eat cake as long as they control the price. - 3 years ago

The Fed owns 80% of AIG. The bonuses came from Fed People and go to Fed People. Whatever, I'm too disillusioned to even know if I am angry anymore.
