Greedy AIG executives.

Financially strapped American International Group Inc. was paying substantial bonuses to executives.
They are a bunch of reckless and greedy vultures siphoning other peoples hard earned retirement & tax-payers money to finance their own personal luxurious empire.
The federal government committed $85 billion to bail out AIG, executives of the giant AIG insurance company headed for a week-long retreat at a luxury resort and spa, the St. Regis Resort in Monarch Beach, California, Congressional investigators revealed today.
AIG documents obtained by Waxman's investigators show the company paid more than $440,000 for the retreat, including nearly $200,000 for rooms, $150,000 for meals and $23,000 in spa charges.
These guys has caused an unprecedented global catastrophe.
Waxman also said there is evidence the two men changed the bonus schedule once the company began to post losses, so that executives under the "Senior Partners Plan" would continue to make multi-million dollar salaries.
Sullivan was given a $15 million "golden parachute" payment after being replaced as CEO in June.
