What Cenk doesn't seem to understand is that these are contractual performance bonuses... people that lost a tonne of money won't get a damn thing! And it's in these people's contracts to get this money. Since everyone else in the bailout got made whole why should the contracted employees that performed be forced to take a haircut? Honoring contracts is one of the ORIGINAL points in the constitution; blame Congress for not putting in conditions for the bailout re bonuses but not the workers plz

"My ass. It's all the same company. The money's fungible."
Dictionary says: "being of such nature or kind as to be freely exchangeable or replaceable, in whole or in part, for another of like nature or kind."
Wikipedia says: "It refers only to the equivalence of each unit of a commodity with other units of the same commodity."
Bankers, more than anybody, would know that. Thanks, Cenk.

They say the same for British banker.. and say that if we don't pay bonuses they will go to America.
Fact is, there is always someone to take their place. I would be happy if they all disappeared and opened up promotion prospects for existing employees, which in turn would create more jobs for graduates and reduce employment.
Infact it would be a time to celebrate.

You ask the right question - Where are they going to go? They can threaten to leave, but there is no were in the world that pays the astronomical executive salaries you find in the USA.
This a fraud in the extreme.
I say, let them go try and find a job in Europe, because not only did they tank our economy, but they tanked the world economy. I don't see European companies as real eager to hire greedy self-serving bastards like this.
American! STOP PAYING YOUR TAXES!

Fucking unregulated derivitive market pirates. These selfish fucks will never have enough. Bush was wrong - these clowns need rules and oversight. I want to jerk the leash with my own hands.
