Companies are being bailed out & execs are still receiving bonuses! THIS MUST STOP. What happen to the plan that they would not receive a bonus or parachute, no matter what a contract stated. Goldman Sachs is still having parties - one of the employees here just attended one in FL. Executive greed caused a great deal of these problems - then these same people are rewarded.

Back in the late 90's I lost my job and had a 4,000.00 balance on a citi credit card which I defaulted on. It's been long since paid, but for a year their lawyers made my life hell. So here are representatives go... I defaulted and got screwed, they defaulted and my tax dollars keep them in business.

Wake up people, these are our tax dollars!
