Bank pay control, UNBELIEVABLE

[elvis]

Simply divorce investment banking from commerical banking. Don't let the commercial banks "front" for stock brokerages. Regulate out the incentive for corporate corruption while keep competition keen and active. Yeah, the overpaid bozos are not the best and brightest, and no one else will hire them. That's why they are squealing.

that's what Glass Steagall was about. before Clinton repealed it.

does this include Goldman Sachs?

The big question is...why do you want to give corporations taxpayer money without any expectations of their performance?

I know this is difficult for you understand sometimes. Ill try to make it easy with big print:

We don't want to give taxpayer money to bail anyone out period!

Now, hopefully you'll comprehend that. However, now you seem to think the fact that you've given this money away, now you can micromanage these companies. As if the people not running them, are somehow responsible for getting them into this mess rather than having just been hired to get them out. You've taken away any motivation for these people to actually do their job and get them out of this.

If you are going to do anything, which you really dont have any legitimate power to do under the Constitution keep the bonuses and pay in place. Just make it conditional on results. Youll see alot of results quickly.

But no, you guys want to hand these people tax payer money and then punish them for being hired to get these companies out of this mess. You guys are freaking idiots. And I for one am tired of you wasting the hard earned money of the American people.

Has it even occured to you that youve just eliminated future tax revenue? Where exactly will the government get money when the rich have been eliminated? Who is going to pay for your programs?

Sorry the public currently owns these people's asses. Because of that these guys get to take orders from the people's representatives or their appointed stand ins. It sucks to be them under a Democratic administration. And it will suck even worse for the people of this country as under these circumstances we sure as hell aren't going to get the best and the brightest people to take on the responsibility of turning these companies around which means we will all lose when these entities finally do go belly up.

And I suppose these overpaid bozos who ran their companies into the ground with all kinds of cockamamie investment schemes were the "best and brightest"?

They ARE the best and brightest - they conned the administration into giving them billions. Can you do that?

So aV, AFTER ALL THOSE SMART PEOPLE RAN THE COUNTRY IN THE DITCH, WHO WENT TO JAIL, VERY FEW , THE LEAST THEY COULD EXPECT IS A PAY CUT, GO FIGURE

 

[bodecea]

No one was forced to take the money. Or pressured. And all that wanted to pay it back paid it back. Nice lies, though, dipshit.

tsk tsk tsk,, name calling instead of facts to back you up.. Ravi Ravi Ravi are you related to bodunk?

Show us that the banks were pressured into taking the money as you earlier asserted.

We arent talking about the people who ran the country into the ditch. Those people are still serving in Congress.

We are talking about the executives who have been recently hired to fix the mess their predecessors left them. How exactly is it right ot penalize them????

[JakeStarkey]

Av, many of the "predecessors" are still in place, I suspect. And we are talking about 175 positions, a very, very small portion of the executives. Yeah, hit them in the face metaphorically very, very hard. Hit them where they hit a lot of America -- right in the pocket book. They don't like it, they can quit and take their chances like everyone else.

Actually, being a lazy person, you of course would want to name call me into doing the work your lazy ass doesn't want to bother to. So, taunt away....and if you ever decide that you want me to do your lazy ass work for you...just PM and I'll give you directions to my PayPal acct. Remember, $200 for the first 5 minutes, $100 every half hour after. You don't get my research for free.

really? ALL of the ceo's that ran us in to the ground aren't still working?

they took our money and still refuse to loan to us avatar, to our small businesses and they raised our credit card interest rates from 7% to 32%....on people that always paid on time....

they can kiss my grits as far as i am concerned...

if they didn't run their businesses so poorly and take our tax ail out money they would not have this problem....maybe they will think twice next time they plan to run their companies in the ground....and won't think the gvt bailing them out will be an easy free ride, or easy street for them....? this would be a good thing....
