ParticipantAhhh, but if it’s a firefighter or policeman who’s due for the big fat bonus or pension.. NOPE! As you argued above, how else do you expect to attract the “top talent” in firefighting and police work if you’re not hooking them up with fat pensions?
And shouldn’t firefighters and police be compensated more for the risk they are taking in their jobs just as you have argued above for the executive?
Everything you’ve argued in favor of with regards to the executive also apply to firefighters and policemen, but I have a feeling that you don’t approve of them getting their fat pensions.
Executive with big fat taxpayer-funded payout = GOOD
Firefighter/Police with big fat taxpayer-funded payout = BADafx114

ParticipantHere’s a question for you flu: Would Citibank even exist if it weren’t for bailout money? Could the dude even have gotten a job there if it weren’t for bailout money?
Would you go work for a company who owes billions? And if you did, would you expect to get a bonus from them if you were successful in your position regardless of the overall health of the company? Are you suggesting that employees should be judged solely on their individual merit rather than the performance of the company as a whole? Shouldn’t it be a combination of both?
Did this $600mil profit he made come solely from his amazing skills, or can some of the credit be given to the seed money provided by the taxpayers?
Chicken or the egg?
And I agree with you, if the dude wants fat bonuses, he should go work for someone who doesn’t owe billions.
