I can understand they are angry about it, but it’s their own fault. They could have checked the contracts and they shouldn’t have spend a Pennny into AIG.

This contracts may feel wrong, but they are probably not seen in a legitamete way. It’s another question wheter the AIG people should have accepted in this situation but an extra law with
backdated just for this way is injustice. Anyway a part of that mail
‘“You will drive people away from being willing to do business with the government,” said Mr. Kramer, a prominent fund-raiser for Mr. Obama.’

Can’t see what would be bad about that. Less business for the governement is good not bad.

I would not have accepted the payments if I’d work for AIG but now I’d take it and go to court.
After that court would marks this law unlawful, I’d give back the money. Now I hope at least one at AIG does it that way….
