Call your congress rep make certain they at least try to get some kind of controls on this.

The administration promised us they would handle it and we had to agree to tax breaks so the GOP would vote for this.

Do not forget next election. I am sick and tired of tax breaks for the rich and we the true tax payers pick up this tab.

No more welfare for the rich.

Call and let your voice be herad.

Citigroup currently more than 4,000 employees in the Philippines. The planned additional call centers mostly deal with overseas customers.

Last week, Citigroup Chief Executive Vikram Pandit announced 50,000 additional job cuts on top of 22,000 cuts previously announced.

Gee, Hands out to the Fed for bail out money, lay off Americans and hire more Philippians''s. I say let them fall.....

I am so glad the government has done this. It is holy, righteous and filled with purity. The white blue eyed blonde haired baby Jesus smiles fondly upon Citigroup this morning.

The only way for the common man and woman to fight back against this crummy deal is don''t buy, don''t borrow.
