After its bonus payments ignited a firestorm of criticism earlier this year, American International Group Inc. is asking the federal government to weigh in on the insurer's plan to resume paying millions in promised retention incentives next week, according to media reports.

AIG, once the world's largest insurer, has asked the Obama administration's compensation czar, Kenneth R. Feinberg, to approve the payments in order to head off any public outrage, The Washington Post reported Thursday evening.

With the rest of us taking pay & beneifit cuts, not too mention the lay-offs across the country,, I can't believe the administration would consider this, and if they give the OK I say vote them out in 3 years this is plum crazy to even ask let alone even give out these bonuses...

Why hell yes I do I have sat and watched Bill Zollars, since August of 2006.. Maybe one day he can aspire to run AIG and leave YRC alone.

AIG management ran the company into problems, the government had to bail them out, now they want the same management to be rewarded, if the government approves.

It is time for some new actors in this scary movie, these people make my head hurt.

I am still waiting for a real leader to bring some sense to government.
