I hope they don't have to lower their standards.<BR/> I wish they would go make the bastards live in a tent city for a full week. Sleep in a tent in the dirt, shower at the nearby Church, scrounge for meals.<BR/><BR/>Pelosi is calling for a possible emergency session to dole out more money to Wall Street. I hate that she refused to Impeach, but has no problem putting the bailout *on the table* for Wall Street.Franhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14198689517878201943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3882537619389851611.post-28899264636064135042008-10-09T21:13:00.000-07:002008-10-09T21:13:00.000-07:00oh it gets worse-- they have ANOTHER outing planne...oh it gets worse-- they have ANOTHER outing plannedDistributorcaphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149154929149577121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3882537619389851611.post-22362523180449148042008-10-09T07:27:00.000-07:002008-10-09T07:27:00.000-07:00The AIG CEO defended the $440,000 vacation spree f...The AIG CEO defended the $440,000 vacation spree for the employees, by saying it is *usual and customary* in the business.<BR/>HELLO! There is nothing usual & customary going on in the economy right now. If you are taking billions in bailout money (Now $122 for AIG), you had better darned well trim the fat.<BR/>I fear this attitude and expectation for the upper crust in the world of finance is widespread. They are so used to being on the high end of high rolling finance, they can;t or won;t adjust to the financial crisis.<BR/>Who will scrutinize every division if every company to make sure they are not abusing the bailout money?Franhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14198689517878201943noreply@blogger.com
