Meanwhile, Back at AIG

[billroper]

If the Washington Post can be believed, the people currently working at AIG to clean up the mess aren't the once who created it.

They're just the ones that some of you want to shoot.

Or that Senators suggest should commit hari-kari.

So why would any sane person not quit now?

And what sane person would replace them?

On the one hand, the article says that everyone who caused the problems has now left. On the other hand, officials of the company are quoted a little later as saying that if they had got rid of everyone, they wouldn't have the people with the skills to "understand the book." So, either they have got rid of the people who caused the problems, or they haven't. It's this kind of ambiguity that one finds so confusing.

I suppose I ought to make it explicit, just in case, that I don't advocate shooting anyone.

The real question here is, Who is John Galt?
