$millions in AIG bonuses have now been returned, according to Cuomo.
More than half of the bonus payout to the infamous financial products division apparently went to employees who were not American, by the way. Of the $80 million that did go to americans, apparently $30 million has been given back..
Here's the story:

2. oh man... 100% of responses to my thread are freaking snowy owls. How is this not interesting to
people?

I think Cuomo is doing some good work, and if this story doesn't get attention in the news, then I will have to conclude that I do not understand anything about anything, lol.

3. Because it doesn't suit the interests of the pitchfork brigade
they can't demonize people who do the right thing. Totally fucks up their agenda.

4. Does this mean I have to sensationalize my posts just to get some loving DU attention?
Will pony pictures suffice?
Help me understand.
