Prized employees.....OMG!
This is bad...serious....disgusting for sure, but why is this, a smaller percentage so bad when we were asked to simply accept the pork which was quite a bit more than these bonuses. Remember when we were told to remember how small the percentage of pork was ? This is certainly not defending AIG, but again.....lots of smoke screens !!!

PS: Maybe someone should take a deep breath and find folks who want to work there and fill the vacancies in the Treasury !!!!!!
