just real quick.

this whole AIG mess is outrageous. congress pretty much allowed for this to happen and what's worse is that congress has now set a precedent by retroactively taxing the bonuses. so now, say you make a good bit of money one year, they can say hey, lets tax that after you had made it. Pretty much the whole non representation thing.

and, why is there all of a sudden so much outrage over these bonuses. it's less than 10% of what the gov't gave them to begin with... which they probably shouldnt have done to begin with, and it's less, much less than the deficit that will be racked up by the new budget this year. they tout fiscal responsibility, but they demonstrate it. if there should be outrage, it shouldnt be directed toward AIG, but directed toward the people that gave them that money in the first place, congress and ourselves.

ok, time to go play golf with my dad. it's spring break, so i'm trying to mix school work with play time. i wrote a paper and have done some other homework, but not enough. i'll try and stay up late tonight and get some work done.

p.s. it's pretty much official that i'm going to samford next year for law school. i wasnt too dissapointed that i did not get into UT, i think moving will be a good thing.
