Yes, what is needed is the stricter and more oppressive government control of the private financial firms/markets favored by many of the Europeans

Is that not the Obama Plan in a nutshell?

we do but still think the bonuses are 'chump change' compared to the $$$ being given to AIG and other banks and automakers. None of it seemingly accountable and some even secret. The thing that peeves me about the bonus thing was the fact Obama & Co knew of it far earlier than they first admitted and jumped on the bandwagon after figuring it would be great punching bag to use.

A little 'three card monte' to keep the public off the 'Ponzi'

Forgetting AIG for a minute...if you guys really think letting all the automakers and banks file BK was in our best interests, then I truly never will understand what you are trying to accomplish. At some point reality trumps principal, but the right is so stuck in their ideologies that there is zero flexibility to adjust to changing conditions.

Heck, Obama is nowhere close to what some of them would do. We'll have to see what comes out of the Group of 20 summit.
