Goldman Sucks = trillions in worthless derivatives = AIG = taxpayer bailout money

If anyone is in doubt that Goldman Sucks is the ENEMY of the UNITED STATES let him speak.

THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS!

AIG is struggling because of Obamas liberal policies forced them into this position.

Why AIG Stumbled, And Taxpayers Now Own It...............
Steve Kroft Reports On The Troubled Insurance Giant, And Talks To Its New CEO...........

Well Now - Just for Starters - Sold Out - The Rest of The Story

Report: Wall Street Spent $5 Billion For Political Influence
A group called Wall Street Watch is out with a report that finds that ?Wall Street investment firms, commercial banks, hedge funds, real estate companies and insurance conglomerates made $1.7 billion in political contributions and spent another $3.4 billion on lobbyists? between 1998 and 2008.

The report, "Sold Out: How Wall Street and Washington Betrayed America," concludes that the contributions were ?aimed at undercutting federal regulation? and ultimately ?led directly to the current financial collapse.?

Get this Right - Steve - The Government decided to do what they do best a PR campaign to distance themselves, with the Media's help from the AIG scandal that they created. The Government took it over forced the Taxpayers to PAY FOR all this, then this Kook Steve & CBS work out this PR Story about how The Taxpayers Own It even if we didn't want it. LIke the Auto, Banks, Mortgage, Wall Street & other Corporation Bail - Outs. It is seriously time to Boycott the Big News Media's & Their Sponsors until they can get it right. Hit them where they've been hitting us, where it hurts the most, their Wallets. We can do it & will be so glad you did. Then We can bail them out and Own Them with no input or say in the matter.

The rest of us have enough to pay for. Food, Clothing & Housing that we haven't gotten any help with. While the New Obama appointed CEO's & Staff can laugh all the way to the Banks that WE The Taxpayers Now Own???? Its enough to make you puke what we've allowed them to dictate to us. Business as Usual & nothing will change.

If we own it we wouldn't allow the cockroach exec's to get bonuses.
WE NEED TO BOYCOTT THIS COMPANY!

There is a loophole to every stategy. If the american tax payer wants to avenge thier money? Just simply boycott all companies dependent on your business to help aig recover .The list will be long with branchs that may reach to your door step. One man or woman can't do this but one million can. The problem with that number is this, The american people are all for justice as long the individual wanting that justice doesn't have to do the work.The chances of getting one hundred people to boycott thier root resource investment companies is far to astronomical to calculate . The chances of geting a million is well lets say is impossible. Unless someone is being racialy discriminated or raped in the park or being persecuted for researching bpmb making techniques althogh not interested in making one just researching . The american people cry foul but act like fowl and fly away when it comes to stepping up. We call that all hat and no cattle.

AIG FP, all employees should be given two choices commit suicide of be put in the poor house. Any money these people made should be taken away from them, they misused company funds and destroyed the company. Yes AIG insured anyone who wanted to ensure they did not lose money on investments even very risky ones and AIG lost. Why did AIG let it finanical dept. run wild, because upper management could get large bonuses even though they were losing money, I guess Scott Boras must have made that contractor for upper mangement with the company, no matter how much money they loose they still get paid millions of dollars. The american taxpayer will be happy when the people who brought this abourt is in 8x10 cell not running around free to do it all over again, thats why they (the people who did this) still work for AIG.

I think we should put Bernie's earning power to work here!After all he did help to create this boondoggle, he does have this kind of knowledge and he should have some spare time he could donate . I don't know ,it's3:45 in the morning and I couldn't sleep! Plus I'm about to turn 52 and almost all my retirement money is now floating around in limbo and I can't get my hands on it.I'm going nuts now!!!
