Bailed-out execs used jets for holidays - Economy in Turmoil- msnbc.com

The Wall Street Journal said flight records show that executives at Regions Financial Corp., Bank of America Corp., Morgan Stanley and Citigroup Inc. had used corporate jets for personal use throughout the financial crisis. The Journal reviewed Federal Aviation Administration flight records of 14 federally aided banks that register planes in their own names.

F*** this noise. take down the CEO's and the rich. They constantly abuse and exploit the workers. there is enough wealth to go around. I'm not saying make everyone get paid the same, I'm saying equalize it.

Don't believe for a second this isn't possible. Why do you think the peasants never revolted for hundreds of years? because they thought it wasn't possible. they were not educated and the rich kept them believing they were stuck in their position and deserved to be there. before it was rule by divine right and they had the "permission of god". now we are told "people won't work for less money" or "there isn't enough money, some people have to be poor".

It's BS.

Obama used a jet for a one night date. Sorry, just putting things into perspective.

yeah well I in general believe that all politicians should not be rich. it is corrupting and perverts the governer to bend to economic pressure instead of the real needs of the people...

What makes me laugh is why the lower class and middle class continually vote for right wing leaders, who have no intention of making thier lives better.

people need to get more mad and involved. force the politicians to listen and try and change the system.. thats what I'm going to do.

I hope they continue to use the jets just to flip off the gubment and the never-haves all full of envy. More power to 'em.

How do we know their intent? I mean, it is obvious that this abuse happens on both sides, so how can one say that "vote for right wing leaders, who have no intention of making thier lives better." and proclaim fact when in "fact" they can not confirm the same with the other side?

No offense, but it seems to me that the intention of your post was to bolster a position that was in favor of the side you support? I could be wrong, maybe you could provide me with the logical evidence that supports your claim?

Agreed both sides abuse it, thats why I'd support the green party in Canada. so how can one say to vote left over right?? well unlike the left, the right makes no promise to make the average persons life better, so when they do stuff for the rich and not us, we can't hold them accountable.

Normander, get a life. You got owned on the American fascist thread, i don't want to embarrass you here. I'm just some 19 year old punk but I can still embarass you.

Logical evidence??? for my political stance??? its not so much logical as just the basic human rights everyone deserves. and as long as people who want to work and do work hard, are struggling or unable to support their families while CEO's, who on average make 100 times more then the average salary earned at their companies, something needs to be changed. what srot of birth right or entitlement do these people have??

anyways again, at least the left if they make a promise and break it, you can get mad and try and do something, if the right do it, well they never promised you "average wage earner" anything to begin with!!

Ahh, here is where you went wrong.

I dont need or even want ANY leader to make MY life better, thats MY responsibility. I want them to leave me alone so I can do what I'm entitled to do, which is fail, or succeed because of my willingness and abilities..

I have no problem with this, considering the taxpayer money obama burned on his "date night" in NYC.
