This just shows the incredible shamefulness of corporate America.

Every company in the States is gonna be shooting for free handouts.

Good job, Congress.

Once again, mis-handled from the word go. You knew this bailout was pure BS when it finally passed and there was enough pork added to sink a battleship. What the hell, the bill included funding for kids wooden arrows

. It just does not stop down there on Crapital Hill. This is just more of it and they are not worried about anyone knowing about it.

I'm calling them for a bail out...My company needs a bailout. HMIB, Inc ... Help Me I'm Broke, Inc. requires billions of dollars because we mis-managed the hell out of it. Check is coming when?

I thought conservative-type governments were against hand-outs?

Did I miss a page somewhere?

BTW, I also demand free money! Why? Uh.....just, uh, um, well, just because, ok?

Guys! I got it, we need to make up a company. Call it Subsim Incorporated. We can say we provide submarine training equipment. We will be in the Cayman's on the beach with millions when the figure out what we did in 7 years.

I see. Who asked for the bill to get through Congress for AIG's benefit?
Who signed it once passed? Just wanted to clarify things.

Enough signed it to get it through....not until the pork was added by the Republicans

What, do you think all in Washington are not covering their tracks to the lenders? Do you think what they did was just to get relected? You bet they did. This is the pinnical of the self-serving folks in Washington.

I'm going to file chapter 11 for HMIB, Inc and then head on out to Las Vegas with the upper management for a weekend retreat on the companies rolls.
