Are you a righteous citizen upset about the $165 million in bonuses paid to employees of bailout recipient AIG? How dare they pass out your tax dollars to those unworthy scoundrels! Have you called the White House or petitioned your member of Congress?
Either way, you might want to note the $12 billion in shrink-wrapped $100 bills that vanished in Iraq, or better yet, the projected $3 trillion cost for the removal of Saddam Hussein. Don't sell your outrage cheap.
