Big bonuses are back. Backlash isn't. So now we also get Lobbying, too.

[mEDITate-OR:
not see that you're being fleeced..., again.

Not only is is bad, it has gotten worse.
And, as the first Fortune article tells U.S., it has also lead to massive spending on Lobbying efforts, to keep it.

What the second article tell U.S. is that the REAL harm is not in the size of the bonuses...
but in what they are given out FOR.
that they reward bad, even stupid behavior, that harms not only the company, & the shareholders, but U.S. too.

Dumb and Dumber, all over again. This time it is, NOT just, a pretty picture.

Sorta like the Politicians they bought for U.S.
{no, the politician are not for U.S., they were BOUGHT for us.}

So..., at least we know that SOME of all that cash is going to go to a "good cause".
{you do, too, think that buying politicians is good..., don't you...}

But, the point remains, they, and we, are not getting what we paid for.

The real outrage is how CEOs are paid, not how much

Big banks mint money again: $18.7 billion
