You sound like a broken record, repeating talking points.

Now read slowly, the POS executives that worked at those failed banks and AIG can pay themselves whatever they wish, just as soon as they pay the money back. Until then they and you can stop whining about it. They should have been closed and the bankruptcy attorneys called in. Then let them whine about their unearned salaries. I don't believe in welfare and I damn sure don't believe in rewarding failure.

I agree about the bankruptcy. Beyond that, you can take your insults for a long walk. So much for a civil argument.

You glossed over the gun to the head issue.

Maybe you should read the article. This is not about the bailees having their exec pay set by the feds - it’s about corporations not involved in the bailout having their exec (and others) pay set by the feds, which makes your post totally off-point.
