Senator Charles Grassley, a Republican from Iowa, called for the AIG executives who just screwed you out of your tax dollars to take responsibility for their screw ups. In a comment aired this afternoon on WMT, an Iowa radio station, Grassley (R-Iowa) said: “The first thing that would make me feel a little bit better towards them if they’d follow the Japanese model and come before the American people and take that deep bow and say I’m sorry, and then either do one of two things — resign, or go commit suicide.”
It really is too bad that we can’t form an angry mob, go to their houses, and just drag them out in the street and beat them to death. Not that we would, but they would at least be forced to hire an army of security guards - thus transferring a little bit of that wealth back to the working class people they stole it from. “Point being, U.S. corporate executives are unapologetic about running their companies adrift, accepting billions of tax dollars to help, and then spending those tax dollars on travel, huge bonuses, etc,” Gerber said.
Sen. Charles Grassley is so angry over AIG bonuses that he says the executives should resign or kill themselves. In a comment aired this afternoon on WMT, an Iowa radio station, Grassley (R-Iowa) said: “The first thing that would make me feel a little bit better towards them if they’d follow the Japanese model and come before the American people and take that deep bow and say I’m sorry, and then either do one of two things — resign, or go commit suicide.”
