THis is obscene – the bailout (we’re paying for it) and now a $7.0mmm salary + bonus ++++ who knows what else – these peole are nuts and the Czar that allows or even suggests this s/be run out on a rail to Siberia – my gosh, how much more of this crap do we have to take. Disgusting the entire shootin’ match back there!
Kick Obama out of office. Clearly he doesn’t have the best interests of the american tax payers in mind if he’d allow this. The fact that we even have a “pay czar” is ridiculous in and of itself.
Btwn this crap and him trying to push healthcare reform w/o any republican support, his approval ratings are dropping faster than a dress on prom night.
I agree…i’d like a day in front of Congress as well. Our government is a joke! $7mm to run a company that shouldn’t even exist today. Unreal!
Where’s Rosie and her stupid comments when you need em.
Some of the posters on this site are raising class envy to a new level. Who do you think you are going to hire to run this company? People like this make a lot of money. If you want to hire the manager of the 7-11 to fill this position I’m sure they could hire them at a much more acceptable salary. Get real, you get what you pay for. This person isn’t the one that caused the problem. Grow up people, top executives do not have to work in a pressure cooker situation for free.
The judge, citing a New York state investigation and an internal AIG probe, said the insurer had for several decades understated workers compensation premiums to evade required payments, resulting in at least $60 million of unlawful annual benefits
The company is trying to sell assets to repay the government, which owns a nearly 80 percent stake, after roughly $180 billion of federal bailouts in the last year.
Pete Wentz, a spokesman for the board of the National Workers Compensation Reinsurance Pool, said the insurers plan to keep pursuing their claims “to remedy AIG’s admitted wrongdoing (and) to obtain a full and fair accounting by AIG
I WANT MY DAY IN FRONT OF CONGRESS.
“If you want to hire the manager of the 7-11 to fill this position I’m sure they could hire them at a much more acceptable salary.” GREAT! LOOK AT THE JOB. JUST BECAUSE YOU MAKE A LOT OF MONEY DOES NOT MEAN YOU ARE GOOD AT IT. IF ALL THESE GUYS WERE SO GREAT THEN WILL YOU PLEASE TELL ME WHY WE, THE GOVERMENT, HAVE HAD TO GIVE OUT BILLONS AND BILLONS OF DOLLARS TO CEO’S IN CORPORATIONS WHO HAVE PUT THIS COUNTY IN THE **** HOLE. YOU’RE RIGHT. I DO HAVE CLASS ENVY. THE MONEY THAT IS BEING PISSED AWAY IS TAKING FROM OTHER PROGRAMS THAT ARE IMPORTANT. I BELIEVE THAT WHEN YOU PUT SOMETHING INTO BANKRUPTCY AND THE GOVERNMENT OWNS 85% OF IT 7 MILLION DOLLARS SEEMS TO BE A LOT OF MONEY. THIS MAKES ME THINK THAT WE COULD HAVE AFFORDABLE HEALTH CARE IF EVERYONE STOPPED WASTING BILLIONS AND TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS. IT JUST SEEMS THAT COMMON SENSE IS RARE.

That should more than pay for this trip to Croatia. I guess that answers my question of if we will get bonuses and raises this year, probably. not.
Getting 7 mil for doing what??!!
Write and call your congressmen! Do it today! That’s the only way your opinion has a chance of counting.
It is obscene. These individuals have no morals.

She is trying to find a way to blame GWB for this.
