I believe this entire notion of bailing out multi-billion dollar corporations with the tax dollars of middle class citizens is criminal. I also believe the CEO's who decided to hedge their financial bets on the backs of grandmothers pensions should be awarded the death penalty for their crimes against humanity.
These poor individuals, who decided to take their retirement money, and follow the advice of their superiors by investing in the companies for which they were employed for many years, are now left with nothing. Actually; they now have less than nothing. Their houses will be taken away, their bank accounts drained to pay off debts they thought were taken care of. If the acts that caused these problems are not viewed as sheer atrocities, then we are all blinded by the big money machine.
These corporations were designed to make money! If they fail, the fault should lie on the individuals making the big decisions! Ironically, those people end up complaining about the 500 million in their bank account as opposed to the 700 million they had before the company collapsed! Shoot these guys, and actually, give the firearms to those grandmothers who paid through their blood and sweat and are left begging for the government tit. Let them rid the earth of these corporate vermin. At the very least there would be justice. Not manufactured justice, but true justice.
Everything seems geared to save those who caused the problems! Does this seem strange America? Why are we seeking band-aids as opposed to locks and keys! It makes me sick.
