Robert Benmosche Is Pretty Sure People Angry At AIG Re: Bailouts Sit At Home Thinking, “Look at them, with their free EZ Passes”

By

“People are angry because they want to blame somebody else. They don’t take responsibility for their own goddamn lives. ‘I’ve never been promoted, because they don’t like me and there were these guys at AIG, look at them they have free lunches and EZ Pass and look at me I don’t get a free lunch.’ These people make me nuts. Get off your goddamn ass and do something. That’s what the people at AIG did, They picked up their asses and went to work.” [Pressler, related]

    TARP funds were disbursed as bridge and tunnel toll waivers?

    I feel so much better, now.

    I'm sorry Mr. Benmosche, I didn't quite catch that. Can you repeat the answer on how long AIG would have survived without a taxpayer funded bailout?
