  • bailed out companies need to be held responsible | 0  

    To: Lowell C McAdam, Verizon
    Dear Lowell,

I find it hard to believe that the law allows you to spend so much money in partisan lobbying when the taxpayers footed the bill for your company to stay afloat.  You took bailout money, have an obscene yearly income, and yet you won't treat your workers well.  Companies who got bailout money should not be allowed to give out bonuses to executives until all the money is paid back.  If executives jump ship because of the lack of bonuses, they should not be allowed bonuses in their new jobs (or their bonuses should be sent to pay off the bailout) until the bailout from their previous employment is paid back.  No more lavish company-paid parties during bailout repayment time, either!
