wherez mah bailoutz?

October 7th, 2008 | Posted by Smithers at 2:24 pm in Politics |

Last month:

AIG receives federal government bailout of $85 billion tax payer dollars.

This month:

AIG executives spend $443,343 at a luxury resort.

Makes you feel good doesn’t it?

Maybe if you lost a trillion dollars you could go on a half million dollar vacation?

    and it’s things like that that make me against a bailout. It’s probably needed so we don’t end up in total desperation. But jeeze people reign in the gilded age a little.

    Might just go join the IWW…

    I bet if AIG would have slathered the trip up as much pork as they did with the “bailout” Rep. Cummings would change his mind on that too.

    This reminds me of back in the eighties, when Donald Trump was allowed half a million bucks per month by the court for living/work expenses while he worked himself out of bankruptcy. Say what?
