		<description>To cj, from message #9. 

Regarding Workers Compensation Law, AIG is wrong. You have a legal claim. 

Call attorney Kevin Kutyla, in Newton, New Jersey. It is Federal Law, if you were injured on the job, they have to provide financial restitution. - Ralph

ps. I am a former client. He is great person.</description>

		<description>I have been urging everyone to cash out of AIG.  My co-worker canceled his insurance for this fraud of a company to only make a withdraw from his account for the next month. 

It took him 2 months to recoup the money that they stole from him.  

Let me know at what point we are supposed to feel bad for them?</description>

		<description>WE THE PEOPLE AS A NATION BOYCOTT AIG
It is absolutely insane for one company to have such a position in our National Economy, there needs to be a dismantling of this company and others similar to it.  As quoted from an AIG expert “We are the ones who stand to lose the most now” (speaking of the fact that the government owns 80% of the company) ...... the more we put in, the more we stand to lose (lets cut our losses at 170B).  We need to stop now, furthermore we should have never put in the 170B.  I think the taxpayer (We the people) should have had more of a voice in the first place of putting in of the 170B, not to mention the fact that 170B is not going to reestablish the company but it is being used to pay bonuses.     AIG CAN NOT BE TRUSTED!!!!!!
 
Furthermore, I think that this whole financial thing is nothing more than a time bomb scheduled by our former anti-American President George W. Bush to keep the focus and media off all of his illegal activities.  I use the phrase “Anti-American  President” simply because we have never had such a President to cause our Nation so much turmoil than G. W. Bush, he disfigured us as a Nation in the eyes of the world.

		<description>The solution is simple. Publish a list of all AIG execs receiving bonuses so America can know the names of those people who are slapping them in the face. How about not doing business with any company who employs any of them?</description>

		<description>I cannot begin to believe that a company begging on bended knee for government funds to survive has the audacity to issue bonuses to employees.

You reward success, not failure, and I assume that the people being rewarded with the bonuses are the same ones that helped put AIG in the financial crisis that they are in. I know that the company says that it has an obligation, but these people are lucky to just have jobs, much less be rewarded for failure. There are a lot of unemployed people out there that are also &quot;quality&quot; employees. If the one you have were so good, then you wouldn&#039;t be asking for a bailout!

Do you really think that they will leave the company and try to find jobs elsewhere in this environment because they don&#039;t get a bonus? Get real.

As a taxpayer I want my money back from them to use with a struggling company that will appreciate what the government is doing for them. Or, put in management that understands financial crisis, what caused it and has a plan to remedy it. Not provicde largess and taxpayer expenses.

As cruel as it may sound, if they don&#039;t change management and bring in people that can succeed, then let them fail and close their doors.</description>

		<description>I am currently in a legal matter with AIG. I had a fall at work and hurt my back. I was later terminated from that job but my doctor tells me I must change my job because I have chronic back problems now. Because I was terminated AIG says that I am not entitled to any type of works compensation. I have a family to take care of and I cannot work and must find some other type career to get into. The entire process AIG has came up with excusses not to provide some type of disability support. My lawyers are working on my situation. The government should have let them go under.</description>
