    AIG Corporate Mockery

     

    I heard Friday night that AIG had paid 1/2 billion in deferred compensation to it's employees. What is WRONG with these people? I have lost my home, my job, my savings, and soon will be living on the streets. My government bureaucrats keep giving money away as if it were nothing to them. Bailouts given to AIG just went out the door. The management's position is they had to keep the staff. HELLO, just havng a job should be enough compensation to keep them happy. Have you noticed how many people keep losing their jobs every week? The bailout money kept AIG's doors open, otherwise these fatcats wouldn't have gotten paid their salaries! The senior managment should all be fired, the deferred  compensation should be deducted from the bailout money, AIG should be penalized 200% for their abuse of the taxpayers monies. What kind of example and precedence is this setting? Pretty soon i'll be paying for every state,  city and large corporation existence with my tax dollar. I think we are overdue another tax revolt. No taxation without representation.... Why should i continue to pay my taxes, when our hypocrite legislators continue to live beyond their means? Why should i pay my taxes when the bailouts continue to fill their pockets with mt tax money? In the meantime I still cannot find a job.
