I already stated I think they should publish the names of anybody who's getting taxpayers subsidzed bonuses.
So I guess the best thing I can do is call my congressmen and tell them to support that 90% tax on bonuses they're working on. That weill leave them with the 10% bonus I talked about earlier, which is still more then they deserve.
Why? So those people can receive death threats, maybe even physical attacks? You DO understand that the people that caused this mess have been fired, right? The employees that were retained and received bonus were not the cause of AIG's failure. They aren't all CEOs and VPs. Why should the average employee, whos only crime was to be employed a company you don't like, have to go through that? Again - I already know you support it - I'm asking you how that is possibly legal or ethical.
Ethics? You want the taxpayer to pay bonuses for a failed company and you bring ethics up in your defense?? Please....

I say fuck corporate welfare. If they live by the sword then they can die by the sword.
No - I think the company should not have been bailed out at all, and thusly left to fail on its own. And when the company was liquefied, employees would be paid first, followed by creditors.
However, the company WAS bailed out. And since it was, they still have to follow all applicable corporate/civil laws - such as paying employees as contracts state.
Again. Its simple, and it the law. You can post all these cute little smilies and try to make jabs at me, but you're still failing to make any reasonable points here. And still, none of this even comes CLOSE to making a case for releasing the names of the employees that received bonuses. I love repeating myself....the people that caused this mess are gone. The retained employees that are receiving bonuses were not the cause. So releasing their names and causing them all of those issues is quite clearly not a solution to anything.
