Hound, 2 weeks ago you wrote this after I commented that these AIG employees were due their bonus:
"don't see anything wrong with giving AIG h*ll for giving out those bonus. Yeah, those people had a "right" to a bonus -- when the company was making money, not taking a government bailout. I understand 11 of them got their bonus and quit. So much for having to pay bonus to make sure the "smart" people stuck around.
It shows poor, poor judgement on everyone's part that they were paid. Poor judgement on the part of AIG that it wasn't tied to the company profits; poor judgement on the part of the people being paid the bonus (but then, greed is the mantra isn't it?) and poor judgement on the part of Paulson/Bush/Congress and anybody else in the government who was involved in the AIG Bailout for not checking the contracts and not putting a limitation on bonus.
No different than their little executive excusion right after the bailout. They ought to be ashamed of themselves. "
Just curious, do you still feel the same way after reading the bonus recipient's story?
