Trg: končni in edini arbiter pravičnega zaslužka

The New York Times o bonusih, ki si ji bodo razdelili v zavarovalnici AIG, prejemnici največ davkoplačevalskega denarja v “bailoutih”.

The American International Group, which has received more than $170 billion in taxpayer bailout money from the Treasury and Federal Reserve, plans to pay about $165 million in bonuses by Sunday to executives in the same business unit that brought the company to the brink of collapse last year.

Prav je tako! Ker, bog ne daj, da bi:

We cannot attract and retain the best and the brightest talent to lead and staff the A.I.G. businesses — which are now being operated principally on behalf of American taxpayers — if employees believe their compensation is subject to continued and arbitrary adjustment by the U.S. Treasury. NYT

Kriza ni le finančna, kriza je tudi moralna.

BTW “best and brightest talent”: gre za zaposlene točno v tisti enoti AIG, ki je tako spektakularno zavozila.
