before I say anything, Barney Frank talks with such an annoying lisp I want to punch in the face. now for the topic.

I think its a joke that the government owns 80% of AIG and they're paying bonuses to the idiots running the company. yes AIG is too big to fail, but these idiots don't deserve the money. No our tax money should go to keeping AIG alive, just not to bonuses. Its a huge multinational company, one of the biggest in the world. Oh yeah incase you're wondering, AIG is paying 56 million pounds to advertise their name on Manchester United jerseys.

ehh i think the more money we can give to people so they can pump it back into the economy.. the better off we are.. i do think we need to fix things so when the money runs out were not in the situation. but for now we need a little stimulation and this seems pretty reasonable, now the employees can go out and buy cars , and remodle their kitchens ect.. this in return will keep other people in buisness. so it kinda helps everyone
