We’d have been better off with the first bailout package without all the damn earmarks!

It is only my opinion that these CEO’s that ran our credit institution should never get these ridiculous severance packages. The Board of Directors of these credit institution should all be dismissed for allowing this to go on. It needs to stop now. Mr. Fishman who joined Washington Mutual Sept 8, left Sept 25,2008 will get this wonderful severance package. I wonder if an average teller left Washington Mutual what would the severance package be if they left in that period.
This is one of the reasons our Economy is the way it is, because this has been allowed to go on for years. If the people have to bail these companies out, then these CEO’S should get nothing.
The little person on the street does not get a severance package, yet these CEO’s get all their benefits. No wonder the average worker cares less how the company does that they are working for, when they treat the CEO’s like they do and the little person is treated like a number your social Security number.
Things need to change and it needs to change from the “Top”
