If I were a shareholder of AIG, I would be very concerned that the company’s CEO was incapable and unwilling to name the 20-25 people who cost the company $100,000,000,000.00. That’s a lot of money for a company to lose without knowing who is responsible.
Of course Liddy does know who the 20-25 failures are. He’s just refusing to share the information with Congress, despite the fact that the U.S. Government owns 80% of AIG now. Which, I suppose, is to say that I am a shareholder of AIG. With that in mind, I’ll say this: Edward Liddy should be fired for (1) incompetence or (2) refusing to share information with company shareholders.
Lastly, Alan Grayson is a champion of working Americans and one of the greatest models of what a true civil servant looks like today. He’s in his first term in Congress and has taken a huge role in pushing for corporate accountability in these tough economic times. We got to where we are today for a reason and Alan Grayson seems to be one of the very few people in Washington who gets that we can only identify, stop, and correct the economic forces that have brought us to where we are now through hardnosed questioning and unflinching investigation into economic wrongdoing.
Thanks for the support! Congressman Grayson is doing a superlative job of exposing the underbellly of this beast. He will, by the way, be at Netroots Nation again in July.
