HOW CAN THIS BE????

I just read that AIG is handing out 165,000,000 dollars in bonuses after receiving bail out money from taxpayers. I just can't believe this. Maybe the IRS should have a very close look at anyone that accepts one of these bonuses. What do you guys think?

Yeah ? Well I got their "BONUS" hangin right here baby,,, What a crock of crap that is ! At this rate they are feeding the goverment every reason they need to push socialism as the private sector doesnt seem to be very damn trustworthy. Maybe they need to bring back public executions for crimes against humanity . Nobody seems to be responsible for their actions or afraid of the consequences "IF" they get caught . Anybody here ever read any of the "Mack Bolin" series of books ? We could use a man like him right about now ,,,

It’s been reported that the reasons AIG went ahead with the bonus distributions were due to contractual agreements. They say re-writing the contracts or not living up to the agreements would be more costly than going ahead with the distributions.

Now isn’t that a big bunch of you know what !!!

While under a union contract I was forced to take a 48% pay cut.
While under a union contract I was forced to take a reduction in medical benefits.
While under a union contract I was forced to take a reduced benefits package.
While under a union contract I will no longer have a retirement package.
While under a union contract job security language was thrown out.
While under a union contract shop rules were re-wrote.

This was all done with the stroke of a pen from a judge !!!
And now they want to convince me the same can’t be done to them !!!

Oh yea !!! Forgot to mention, bonuses were given out before, during, and after all this took place to my contract.

Yes, I'm mad as Hell !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mad
