Did you know that you have contributed to a 170 billion dollar bailout to AIG as a bailout? Well neither have most other Americans. Out government is one to collect out tax dollars, and spend it where they deem necessary, with out any vote for the people paying in this money to choose where it will go. AIG's bailout was the largest single bailout our government has ever done. The worst part about all of this? The company is still failing. The company executives are planning to give themselves a 100 million dollar bonus. Remind you, this company just collected 170 billion as a bailout, and is continuing to fail, yet they want to give themselves a bonus?
This is why I feel that if our government gives out a bailout using our tax dollars, it should be a vote that all tax payers are able to decide if they want our tax dollars going to a specific company. If this company continues to fail, that is 170 billion dollars wasted, that could have been spent on something more worthy, such as schooling, or even given to states for roads, ECT.
