Socialist thugs. Don’t underestimate their totalitarian mindsets.
Translated, the taxpayer money paid for bonuses will be recouped by taking more money from taxpayers by charging fees to banks that they will pass along to their customers.
this guy is a clown
and then the banks can recoup the fees baid to the gov’t from the customers....no problem...our pockets are deep...not!!
AIG uses TurboTax ftw.....
OIC. So, you’re charging me to payback the gov’t approved bonuses that were already funded with my money to begin with?
Why do you demand putting a tax on my checking account to pay back the bonuses that you, Chris Dodd, and Barney Frank finagled for your cronies at AIG?
PS: Aren't you supposed to be headed for prison?

Does this stupid tax cheat not realize that robbing banks will only hurt stockholders and the people who place money in banks?
It does not hurt the companies.
Has there ever been such a naive treasury secretary??
Big paydays for Fannie and Freddie bosses By Chris Isidore, senior writer December 24, 2009
"Top executives at mortgage finance giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, both of which have been under government control since last year, received millions of dollars in pay in 2009, according to documents filed by the companies Thursday.
The chief executive officers of each company got annual pay packages worth $6 million apiece, while other top execs pulled in at least $2 million.
So the bailed out banks need to pay for the bailed out insurance company’s bonuses.
Timmy is a damn fool.
Exactly.
Please be reminded the US government owns 80% of AIG. Perhaps you forgot it was nationalized by Barack Hussein Obama with your help. That makes it under the control of the US government.
How the US government could so profoundly mismanage AIG is beyond human comprehension.
It is a good thing you don't have any power over the Federal Reserve.
Oh crap.
A Taxpayer
Governance through moral relativism.
This is total bull crap. This can’t possibly fly, can it?
OK I get it. This administration keep doing and saying insane things to keep the American people angry and unable to see straight.
The list of grievances are growing each day.
Lloyd Blankfein of Goldman Sachs just took a 100 million bonus for 2009.
Both companies were largely responsible for the credit crisis and worldwide economic destruction. Both companies accepted billions under TARP. Where is Geithners phony outrage over their bonuses? Oh yahh, thats right. Bashing AIG makes for nice political theater.
My immediate thought was that this was satire...when I realized it wasn’t my next thought was “are these people for real”?
So...Tim’s going to recoup fees from the banks to pay for the bonuses that Congress OK’d? They should take that money from Mr. Dodd himself.
So Bank of America and Wells Fargo and Citi Bank shareholders get taxed to pay AIG bonuses?
Party on, AIG. Party on, TurboTim.
