Whoa whoa, you're saying the public has no reason to be mad at AIG as a company? As a whole? And the it's the governments fault for the backlash?

Yeah a lot of the stuff happening is extreme and uncalled for, and all employees can't be painted with the same brush. But shoot, people from all walks of life get death threats from idiots and don't deserve them. Sports stars, journalists, doctors. Idiots protest and threaten all sorts of people. And the hatred was there far before the bailout.

The financial industry with it's bad business practices, greed, and general arrogance has brought this on it's employees far more than any other factor.
