Reply #58: They would pay the same way you or I would

[GinaMaria]

get a loan, liquidate assets, get sued. At no point is the American taxpayer obligated fulfill AIG's contractual and legal obligations. I'd like to get a bunch of taxpayers together to sue AIG and demand the money back. Let them fail and fade away.

Yes AIG is obligated to pay, but you and I are not. Do we own, run and manage AIG? Did we make agreements with their employees? This is complete bullshit.

And the apologists are out in force today on multiple sites peddling the 'contractual obligation' and the 'you just hate rich people' illogical steaming dung heap that no one in their right mind is buying.
