AIG Seeks Clearance For More Bonuses

American International Group is preparing to pay millions of dollars more in bonuses to several dozen top corporate executives after an earlier round of payments four months ago set off a national furor. » Full Story on Washington Post

Of course they will do it again! They are in for the money just like 500 (CEO's) Health Insurance providers are! They are all after your money and not your health. I predict that the U.S. finances will go down the drain very soon, because the money there is, is to pay for CEO's. The rest doesn't matter! Oh, they will also give much, much money to your consgressman's re-election campaign! Yes, those same congressmen that are supposed to protect you and don't!

No, no, NO! If you've cut jobs, made poor decisions, cost the taxpayers money, or made any lousy bad investments you don't get a bonus or a reward. In serious ecomomic times you get a pay cut like everyone else and thank your lucky stars you still have a job. Man this is one screwed up world when we reward idiots and con men instead of the hard workers in a company. It's time to knock people like this off their pedestals and find some people with brains to replace them.

Don't it seem strange that 402K's, retirement accounts (especially the auto companies), social security and all the programs for our future has disappeared and these companies have all that extra money to give away? Something is drastically wrong in this country. And we need new leadership to right this ship that is going down. Cause right now it looks like we're on the Titanic!

NO MORE BONUSES. What part of that do you not understand? Take the cumulative total of bonus extra money and donate it to the Health Care Reform Bill so that it will do US the best good. Act like a Family not a selfish child having a tantrum. Uncle Sam is calling.

It is tough to believe given all that has occurred with AIG that they could even THINK about the option of giving bonuses!!!!
