MONOPOLY (The Game of Choice for Our Economy)

As a child I loved to play Monopoly. My Favorite role was to be the Banker. I love being in charge, and it was the easiest way to CHEAT. Yes I am going to come out and say that I used to Cheat at Monopoly. Aaron and Angela will never play that game with me again. So for who knows how long AIG and other banks have played monopoly during work and with real money. Now our Government is buying Wall St., AKA Boardwalk and Park Place. AIG pays retention bonus' to 73 employees and this amounts to about 163 Million Dollars. Less than 1% of the Bailout money they have received. I think that congress is jealous of AIG big wigs getting bonus and that is why Congress is mad. Let it be known that the Bailout money was given with no limitations on how the money could be used. I don't think it is worth all the attention this story has received. Personally a company who is going through the financial struggle they should be cutting back on bonus'. Intermountain cut our Christmas Bonus and our 401k match last year. It hurt my pocket book but it was better than layoffs. Congress feels cheated and so now they have to find a way to get the 163 Million back. Well how does Government make money. Taxes, so no Congress wants to tax these 73 people up to 95% of their bonus money. Well now that Congress is able to Tax who they and how much they want, what will keep them from doing it to us. I am so happy that the Democrats have control of the House and Senate. If Nancy Polosi would sell her private jet maybe our tax dollars for her salary would be better spent. The BIG THREE get hounded by Congress for traveling by private jet but it is OK for the Speaker of the House to do so. Our Government is throwing money around like it is monopoly money and our Economy is getting worse even with Trillions of dollars in Bailouts and Stimulus money. Not only that but our New Administration in the White House is lying to us. They just found out about the bonus, wait no we new about them all along, as Tim Gietner has stated. Just because of a Man Religious beliefs People would not vote for the only Candidate that has the knowledge to restructure and restore our Economy, Mitt Romney. He should be President, or have Tim Gietner's Job. But NO. CHANGE we can Believe in is running the Show.
