    WASHINGTON - Days after it got a federal bailout, American International Group Inc. spent $440,000 on a posh California retreat for its executives, complete with spa treatments, banquets and golf outings, according to lawmakers investigating the company's meltdown.


    So tax payers get to pick up the check for these execs to enjoy a vacation? Such BS! AIG should not be given any relief if this is how they spend some of the relief money. What a joke, they shouldn't need a "posh" vacation to make them feel better, hell, they should be glad they still are able to stay open.

    is that a fucking joke? WHY!? the first one was an insult, the second one is like a kick in the face rather than a slap. That $600+ went to peoples matresses and they hoarded it like little jews. It didn't go back into our economy at all. Everyone said "OH SHIT, FREE GOV MONEY? IM KEEPIN THIS SHIT!!" lol anyways, fucking ridiculous with the stimulous bullshit.

    x2..it wasnt enough to do nothing with but to save..my wife and i took $400($200/ piece) and saved the rest

    IMO, the $700 billion should have been a stimulus payout
    agreed

    That's cool... We can just ask the Fed to just create more money out of thin air to keep the people quiet as the value of the dollar steadily drops.

    Did you know a silver quarter buys as much or more gas today than it did in 1932?
