Truth is people, we can do alot about it! We just choose not to. We are to worried about who’s on dancing with the stars, and what Obama ate, and is about to crap out the other end! We need to not give these individuals any compensatory packages. They need to be jailed and not in the Bernie Madoff penthouse suite. The hard times in the slammer! They should lose there homes and everything they purchased. It should all be auctioned off and the money thrown back in to the economy! These individuals should be made examples of so that it scares future CEO’s and Presidents of companies into not doing this again!
