AIG Considering Suing Govt for Bailout

AIG is considering suing the US Govt for charging too much for bailout money.

http://www.csmonitor.com/Business/20...-US-government

Every one of the bastards involved should be made to work on a farm and eat his copy of Atlas Shrugged. Alan Greenspan. Hank Paulson. Maury Greenberg. The whole lot of manipulative cocksuckers.

I just noticed that the US Treasury Secretary page on wikipedia does not list previous office holders like they do for other federal positions. Maybe it's a ploy to let fucksticks like Hank Paulson fade into the sunset with a hundred million bucks earned on blue collar backs.

Assholes.

And GoldmanSach's brain trust dumped Hawker-Beechcraft's pension liabilities onto taxpayers after they milked the outfit for all they could.

God. Damn.

That is the new corporate model here.

Been through it myself. Sucks, and don't believe it when they say underfunded! Robbed in order to pay bonuses to the top is more like it. I paid into mine along with a company match and had to wait ten years back then to be vested.

My retirement checks now say PBGC on them! Lost insurance though.

By 2017 my former employer will have paid my pension for as many years as I worked for them, that is the difference between an honest corporation and the bunch of theives we see here.
