Did you wonder why, in particular, was AIG rescued? Do you think this could be the answer? Just maybe.
Remember when this economic crisis hit, and Congress let Bear Sterns go
under, pushed a bunch of forced marriages between banks, etc.?
Then they bailed out AIG. At the time, I thought: "That's strange.
What does an insurance company have to do with this crisis?"
I think I just found the answer.
Among other things, AIG INSURES THE PENSION TRUST OF
THE UNITED STATES CONGRESS!!
No wonder they got bailed out right away!
To hell with the people, let's protect our future, said all our
Senators and Congressmen.
Nice to see where their loyalties lie!
(I'm from the government and I'm here to help you!)
Nope! Nothing unusual or sinister here. Just business in Washington as usual
It must be the New Era of Change
