ну хорошо, и к чему эта справедливость приведет? народ и так обозленный до предела. *i'm all about going by the rules... but trusting politicians is a bit of misnomer, don't you agree? *i love this country, but i have a feeling, something is not right in the system of checks and balances.

narod raduetsa chto u nih otnjali $$$ ... uzhe horosho :-D ...
u have 2 understand that ppl dont like crooks ...
except of "russian republicans" ... no vy rebjata v menshinstve ... (v)... i dont think checks and balances ot etogo postradali ... and majority of americans share this with me ... (Y)

"this act of congress is one time only ... and only against sertain group of ppl "
This is in fact unconstitutional. Whether most people agree with it or not. This is either a country of laws (as oppose to popular centiment) or it isn't!
I sencerely hope this law (if it passes) gets challenged in courts. It is unconstitutional on at least two counts:
1. You can not change the law retroactively (ex post facto)
2. You can not change a law so that it applies only to a certain group of people - it violates "equal protection" clause.
Again, I am just as upset about these bonuses as the next guy. But in this case the "cure" is worse than the "desease".

The Congress, in its true form, is trying to cover up their own screw-up, when they gave AIG billions without actually reading what was in the agreement. Worse then that. Chris Dodd (D-CT) actually inserted the language exempting these bonuses. And now they have a nerve to complain????

And BTW, I take back what I said yesterday about current AIG CIO, Edward Liddy. As oppose to the guy who was removed last September, who is a dirtbag, here is a guy, who came out of retirement, at the request of the Treasury department and took this thankless job for a huge annual salary of $1. On top of that he goes to the Capitol Hill and has to listen to the likes of Barney Frank bloviating about the problems that this moron helped to create in the first place. How rich is that?

Between AIG, Treasury department, Federal Reserve and various banking committees on the Hill, Liddy appears to be the only guy with any credibility and integrity left.

natan u r doing "mnogo shuma iz nichego" ...

Natan - so, what would you do in there place? everyone screwed up big time. the choice are: throw everything in the trash and start brand new, or try to fix things. as fun as it sounds, the first option is not very realistic.

Liddy appears to be the only guy with any credibility and integrity left.
znachit pravilno congress sdelal? ...

В Коннектикуте организовывают автобусные экскурсии для "рабочего класса" к домам где живут AIG executives с заездом в Вилимантик, где у них headquarter. Это по вашему нормально? Что за witch hunt? Кто доказал кто из них виноват и в чём конкретно?
