Put Your Pitchforks Away

AIG employees are getting death threats.
That's pretty lame. I understand the anger, but seems to me there sure is a lot of money jealousy. Sure is a lot of finger pointing.
AIG is a lame company, no doubt, but not everyone at the company is guilty. Some people just clean the toilets and answer the phones.
Threatening to kill people is just not the answer.
Setting up regulations so that it doesn't happen again, creating a sustainable economy that doesn't need to be propped up by bubbles and ending the worship of moneymakers sound like reasonable answers.
It would also be interesting to let AIG, the car companies and the banks in trouble simply fail. Just for fun.
