another one for the morons. Great idea, but err, arent their bonuses ALREADY taxed, duh!!!
Democrats - you need AIG more than AIG needs you. I wish their employees organized and said FU and stayed home. Wanted to see how much money wou;d be lost in one day?
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Sen. Christopher Dodd on Monday suggested a tax provision to recoup the bonuses for executives of ailing insurance giant AIG.
Sen. Chris Dodd said the government could apply a tax to the AIG bonuses.
1 of 3 Dodd, D-Connecticut, said the notion is in the "earliest of thinking" and has not been settled on as a way to resolve the issue, which has set off outrage in Washington and across the country.
The tax would apply only to those at AIG who have received bonuses. The provision would help the government get back the money in the form of tax revenue.
