Every single exec on the trip should be canned. If not for moral turpitude alone, then for lacking the common sense that nature gave a friggin stump. The US govt, and by extension the US taxpayers, now own an overwhelming majority of their corporation. Can someone explain to me in very small words why it would not be possible to do so?
$440k isn't a lot compared to $85 billion. Or $700 billion. Or whatever the number will be next week. But it sends a very clear message. They gambled irresponsibly, they lost, and finally they conned every American into paying for their mistakes. For all of this, nothing will happen to them. Their assets aren't being stripped. They're not going to jail. Apparently, a large number of those directly responsible won't even be fired.
