We're watching the bailout talks hour by hour, and of late, the situation seems to have worsened. Conservative Republicans are really expressing concerns about the enormity of the hit on us American Taxpayers to prop up sagging financial markets. I don't see how there could be any disagreement on one part of the deal.. NO BIG CORPORATE CEO BONUSES.
I've got a "retroactive" solution.. any CEO who took home a golden parachute should be forced under Federal regulations, to GIVE BACK any bonus more than a certain percentage of their corporation's profits. That money would be placed in the pool to cut down the difference on what we working souls would pay for the bailout. What do you think?? rh
