I don't think government should be making decisions on compensation for non-governmental jobs. I'm just not comfortable with this. That is not the role of government.

Well, if you all weren't loading up on debt and making interest-only mortgage payments to these banks, they wouldn't have the money to pay these bonuses now would they?

The Netherlands and Finland are the two least corrupt countries in the world. Despite what many think, the Dutch have fewer marihuana addicts than most countries, in Amsterdam more than half the people you see in coffeshops are foreginers, but other jelous countries like to give the Dutch a bad name. Iceland is even better than The Netherlands and Finland, they have the most advanced democracy in the world in 2011.

Actually the Capt. of the Titanic Capt. White had the good sense to go down with her. Not so with the big banksters, they made sure we all went down with her and they got away with the rest of the 1% on the few lifeboats.
