For those that keep complaining that we can't change the bonus contracts for AIG... I hope everyone is keeping up with the facts. Here's something in today's news:<br> <br> http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090320/ap_on_go_co/dodd_on_thin_ice<br> <br> "After first denying it, Dodd admitted he agreed to a request by Treasury Department officials to dilute an executive bonus restriction in the big economic stimulus bill that Congress passed last month. The change to Dodd's amendment allowed AIG to hand out the bonuses and sparked a blame game between Dodd and Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner."<br> <br> And all this time, we're told these were pre-existing contracts (which I'm sure is true) that should not be broken. Apparently, they were in question a few months ago behind the scenes.<br> <br> Let's keep the story staight and focus on ACCOUNTABILITY rather than executive brown nosing. Because in fact, the owners of AIG did switch hands.
