Shame on them
If you read the newspapers or watch the news you know people are still unemployed with no health insurance.Those that still have jobs are working harder for less money to compensate for the people let go. Companies have cut people's pay instead of increasing it. Recent college graduates are working at any job they can get including fast food restaurants. We have two sons in college with the husband's job struggling with the economy and myself too sick to work. So imagine my emotions when I read the front page today. The executive pay of the Bank of America is listed in an article. Tom Montag, president of global banking and markets made $29.9 million in 2009. This is after the bailout and oh yeah he was with Merrill Lynch. Greg Curl, former risk officer, made $9.9 million. Brian Moynihan ,former head of consumer banking, now chief executive, made $6 million. Joe Price, former chief financial officer, now head of consumer banking, made $ 6 million. Remember taxpayer money that our great-great-great-great grandchildren will still be paying off bailed that bank out. I hope Andrew Cuomo keeps digging so these idiots are held to standards the rest of us follow. How about all that money going to pay off the bailout? I know that will be a sacrifice for these men. They may have to have a staycation, forget the new wing on the house, send the children to a neighborhood school, buy their clothes off the rack, eat at home and the wife may have to get a job, clean the house and cook the meals. You know all the stuff the rest of us do every day.
