Why do I get the feeling this is again but window dressing for the village idiot scene ?

Why would AIG go out of its way to publicize this at this very moment ?

Please remember we are getting all indignant about a few millions while thousands of BILLIONS are flying out our collective window...

Welcome back to feudalism dear fellow medieval ignorant peasant pigs ;)

Marxism we all can believe in ;)

PS : Is AIG short selling America ?

Executive Resume

“I found that politicians knew how to befog every issue, how to control public opinion and manipulate votes to their own advantage and to that of their financial and industrial allies. In addition, Government protects the strong at the expense of the weak, provides courts and laws which the rich may scorn and the poor must obey. It enables the predatory rich to make wars to provide foreign markets for the favored ones, with prosperity for the rulers and wholesale death for the ruled.” - EMMA GOLDMAN, December 1934

"Everything predicted by the enemies of banks, in the beginning, is now coming to pass. We are to be ruined now by the deluge of bank paper. It is cruel that such revolutions in private fortunes should be at the mercy of avaricious adventurers, who, instead of employing their capital, if any they have, in manufactures, commerce, and other useful pursuits, make it an instrument to burden all the interchanges of property with their swindling profits, profits which are the price of no useful industry of theirs." --Thomas Jefferson to Thomas Cooper, 1814.

FALLOUT GROWS: Those who voted for the stimulus supported the clause to protect the AIG's bonuses. Obama's Own Stimulus Bill Protects the AIG Bonuses He Now Condemns —

Somebody got all the "get outta jail free" cards!

another lesson we have learned . Stop bailing these jerks out. they just give the damn money away. let them all sink next time. Obama is not the only one who is pissed off.

Finally, we see some common sense and justice in the Bush/Paulson TARP bill. Still, we may never know what happened to all $350 Billion.
