W00t! Here's a doozy from a Wall Street Journal article on the Wall Street giveaway:
Mr. Paulson is resisting efforts to limit the pay of executives whose firms participate in the program and plans to fight it "hard," according to a person familiar with the matter. He fears that provision would render the program moot, since many firms might choose not to participate.
You mean if rewards are tied to performance then those involved might actually choose to fix things rather than suck off the welfare nipple? Gosh!

One would also have to suspect that if the firms were not willing to limit executive pay, they really have no need of being bailed out.
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your
comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel
they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine,
if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't
try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted
if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and
more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave
such ridicule in place.
