Now that we own AIG, my first demand is that all executive and CEO pay..

[tridim]

be reduced to a level no more than two-times that of their average employee.

All in favor, say Aye.

[crispini]

1. Aye!

:kick:

[DinahMoeHum]

2. Aye.

n/t

[closeupready]

3. There needs to be a government official approving their pay, bonuses and benefits.

Otherwise, there is nothing to stop them from continuing to behave with abandon.

[Blue Meany]

4. No, there needs to be a national referendum for any raise n/t

[ellisonz]

14. So they can steal it again?

[ingac70]

5. Aye.

[Overseas]

6. Wish we owned all those we bail out. Abuse public trust & lose your company!

We gave them a chance by complying with the MYTH that regulations burden them and impede their financial health.

We removed the controls and the companies abused that trust.

I want a major penalty imposed for that.

It would also be good to see the top ten positions in the firm and the Board of Directors have to turn in their salaries for the current and previous year.

[Vinca]

7. Aye! Second demand: AFFORDABLE health coverage.

Better yet, we take them over and nationalize it.

[GreenPartyVoter]

8. Aye!

[sandnsea]

9. Oh hell, put them on minimum wage

They've proven they aren't worth the salary they were getting. They all ought to have enough money to get by quite nicely anyway. Better than the millions of homeowners whose lives they've destroyed.

[DinahMoeHum]

10. Better yet, strip them of whatever assets they have left. . .

extra houses, cars, boats, etc.

Let them live like the rest of us taxpayers, for a change.

:evilfrown:

[sandnsea]

11. If they made a law to do that

they would only apply it to some shmuck with a lawn mowing business and the fat cats would still walk away. The stupid part is that Republicans get just as mad at this shit as the rest of us, but keep letting them get away with it just in case they get rich one day. :crazy:

[mcg]

12. Nay, two-times is too much. nt

[ellisonz]

13. Aye.

And they get the same bennies...
