WTF!!!!!!!! My neighbors must think I'm insane. I was just screaming at my TV! What the hell does the CT AG think he's doing. He's trying to enforce "public policy"? WTF is that? Your job is to protect and uphold the law. They had a binding contract for their bonuses whether we agreed with that contract or not. If the contract wasn't upheld I think they should have sued the government for breach of contract and gotten even more money. If we the people or the they the politicians don't like the way AIG does business or runs it's company than they should have not invested in the company. I'm F'ng furious at this crap.

I blame this on the Greenies for scaring us into going paperless. The tree huggers have destroyed the post office in the name of global warming.

I'm sorry I couldn't resist.
It's partly true though. Instead of getting a huge envelope with my cell phone bill listing all the calls, I get it online. Instead of getting my insurance documents mailed every renewal, I get them online. Instead of mailing payments I make them online.
Welcome to a free market capital system. If you can't change with the times and offer a service people want at a price they are willing to pay this is what happens. The people running that business should not be rewarded for a poor performance and not being able to adapt to a changing marketplace.

Barney Frank no longer cares. He and the rest of the Obama team have gotten their money from Fannie, Freddie, and AIG and now they can throw them to the sharks. This is coming from the same person that told us that Fannie and Freddie were secure and no problems existed. Rather ironic how they now try to cover their tracks now that it's public that their own bill that noone read allowed the bonuses.
