AIG: Name the schmucks!
It now appears that New York AG Andrew Cuomo knows the names of the 73 AIG bonus recipients. Why won’t he name them?
Seventy-three employees were paid more than $1 million in the latest bonuses at the insurance giant American International Group, according to the New York attorney general, Andrew M. Cuomo.
The attorney general provided new details on Tuesday about some of the $165 million in bonuses that A.I.G. paid out last week in a letter sent to Representative Barney Frank, the chairman of the House Committee on Financial Services.
Why is Cuomo protecting their identity?
Nobody had any problems putting the name of a colleague, a teacher for 34 years, and his salary, on the internet when we were on strike for a week to get .5% more out of our board. Nobody cared about his personal privacy.
The Chicago Sun-Times had no hesitation putting a software program on their web site so that you could look up the salary of every teacher in the state of Illinois.
But they’ll protect the names of these schmucks who gambled billions and took billions of taxpayer dollars.
