Yeah, sure, blame it all on Spitzer.... Hank couldn't have possibly been responsible for this, seeing as how he ran the company for so very long, until so very recently...

Did you actually read the story?

And I QUOTE:

"Greenberg was at the helm in 1987 when AIG Financial Products was born and in 1998 when it started getting involved in credit default swap insurance"


So, seeing as how CDS's CAUSED AIG'S MELTDOWN (no debate there), and seeing as how HANK WAS CEO WHEN THEY INITIATED THE PRACTICE, it is extraordinarily difficult to come to the conclusion that he is not wholly responsible.

I feel no pity. He should be shown the inside of a jail cell, not pity.
