AIG execs once again appear to be flipping America off as they take our money. Now, to the tune of $343,000, the top execs went to a secret meeting at a luxury resort in Phoenix last week while at the same time begging for another $40 billion in loans. The hotel staff was forbidden to use or say anything that would identify AIG as being there – no logos, no signs, and according to one report, couldn’t even say the name AIG. So, apparently, they were hiding out because they knew they were doing something that the American taxpayers would not approve of.

If they can afford to waste $343,000 on a conference, they can afford to pick themselves up out of debt without any help from the taxpayers.
