Demand AIG Bonuses be Public Information
Larry Summers said that the American people cannot "abrogate contracts for AIG bonuses" when they pay executives who destroyed our economy with their Credit Default Swaps. If that is true, then we can look at other alternatives: demand that the people who will receive those bonuses have their information be made public as a condition of receiving those bonuses. If they rescind their bonus, then nothing goes public. This will put an end to this outrage faster than they can abscond with our money while other Americans are out of work and suffering. No rewards for criminals without Public Shame, Humiliation and Outrage! Demand it now - sign the petition!
We deserve better than to allow AIG Executives to rip off our tax dollars for personal gain. If we can't legally "abrogate the AIG Bonus contracts" then we should have the right to know who receives our money, where they live and how much they took from each of us. Hold them accountable for their misdeeds and gambling. Give them the chance to be ostracized for the pain, suffering and illegal behavior that they have engaged in. They should not be rewarded with our tax dollars without being exposed to the full oversight of public attention.
Thank you for considering this sensible approach to keeping the system fair and honest. We need to remind pepole that crime does not pay.
