AIG paying back the Bailout | 5 comments (5 topical, 0 hidden)
Well thats refreshing (none / 0)

Aside the from a small point at the end the article seems to celebrate the fact that a debtor might pay back their creditor. I can't exactly blame AIG for the lack of meaningful regulation but if the writer wants to get anyone excited about something get them excited about that.

One thing the article doesn't talk about at all is the adverse affect the situation has had on the economy and in general and the lives of those affected. I don't really think those individuals would be all too impressed with the idea that they might check this off in the win column might pay us back. Due to the overuse of the word might in this reply lets just say i am skeptical to say the least.

Yea, the title of the article and the tone it set makes you think that all the loans and bailouts ARE being paid back or have been paid back, but if you read carefully, it's more projection than done deal.  Still, things on that specific front look good and could be worse, but if that's the best silver lining we can find in this whole thing, it's not too impressive.
