"DEMOCRATS WANT 100% TAX ON EXECUTIVE PAY BONUSES!

The idea of government stepping in and taking over private industry

in order to “save” private industry is ridiculous.  Still, that is the

route both republican Bush-Paulson and democrat Obama-Geithner have

taken.  To prevent the failure of capitalism, only ensures it.

Now that Uncle Sam owns AIG insurance, the democrats want to make all the decisions about how to run a company.  They want everyone pissed off about AIG million dollar bonuses.

They literally want to legislate decisions on which employees should be

rewarded and which should not, how much of a reward they should or

should not get, and (here’s the real kicker) how much tax one has to

pay on bonuses.  We warned you that going down this slippery slope to

socialism was not the right way to go.

STOP. Think about this:

If Democrats (or Republicans for that matter) really felt million dollar bonuses were that bad, why did they allow them? Why didn’t they stop them? They could have.  By stepping in and keeping failing companies alive, your congressmen forced AIG to give out huge bonuses!!! The company, still in business because of your congressmen, must now fulfill its contractual obligations and pay these bonuses! If your congressmen and either President Bush or Obama really, honestly thought these bonuses were bad (and they don’t think that),

they should have let AIG file for bankruptcy, reorganize, renegotiate

contracts and put an end to contracts that required them to pay out

huge bonuses! The big bonuses are not the fault of AIG.  If you’re mad

about them, blame your congressmen, senator and president!!

HOW ABOUT A 100% TAX ON THE PAY OF CONGRESSMEN?

Democrats are counting on you falling for this snow job. They

are counting on you getting caught up in the “Yeah, those guys

shouldn’t get big bonuses when tax dollars saved their company!”

hoopla.  They want you to focus on how bad it is that the business is

giving out the bonuses.  It’s a lie.  It’s a trick.  It’s an

un-American thing to do.  Businesses giving out bonuses is not the point! Don’t fall for it. The point is how bad it is when government takes over private industry! No business is too big to fail.  That’s nonsense.  The mistake is not the bonuses.  The mistake is not letting AIG fail. "
