This Sucks

People should be upset about $165 Million in bonuses at AIG.

However, the real outrage should be directed at those in government who have allowed our money to bail out AIG to the total, so far, of $173 BILLION!

Of that $173 Billion, AIG has sent $58 Billion to foreign banks.

Banks in France received $19 Billion, German banks $17 Billion, banks in the United Kingdom received $13 Billion and Swiss banks deposited $5 Billion.

Domestically AIG sent $43.5 billion to Goldman Sachs, Merrill Lynch, Bank of America, Citigroup, Wachovia, Morgan Stanley and JP Morgan.

I'm sure it's just a mere coincidence that these companies were Obama's top campaign contributors, with AIG investing $101,332.

If we didn't rescue AIG with $173 Billion, and counting, they couldn't have been "sucking the tit of the taxpayer" for $165 Million and the scientific community is united in that fact.
