    After screwing the American people employees of Wall Street firms still received over $20 billion in bonuses. What is wrong with this picture, we bail them out and they receive bonuses for poor performance.

    …. you know that old line…. if we don’t give them bonuses they will go elsewhere and they won’t attract quality employees…. FAIL!

    How about bashing unions for their part in screwing the American auto industry which also led to the American people getting “screwed?” At least Wall Street firms have/ or will pay back American taxpayers.

    I gotta go with RivFan on this one. Being an employee in the auto industry, I’ve personally seen how good UAW workers have it. They keep getting more money for simple jobs like threading in body bolts, and the auto manufacturers have to cut down the quality of the vehicle to keep the machine running.

    Some of them Wall St. bankers helped everyone’s retirement accounts rebound, too.
