I watched some CNN last night with Ali Velshi talking to three other talking heads. They were discussing the outrage that a lot of us are expressing over the bonus travesty. I heard a couple of them say, vaguely, if not specifically, like this, "yes, their outrage is understandable, but really, what's the big deal? Even if the people who received these bonuses gave them back, it's not enough money to deal with the current economic problem as it is." (Paraphrased, but I think you get the idea)
My immediate thought was "Yeah, but it's the priniciple of the thing." Have these commentators never heard of "the straw that broke the camel's back?" Basically, the American people have been shafted and fisted royally the past couple months, starting with the whole "bail-out", that now, we're getting to the point where we are severly pissed off! Do they not understand that enough is enough? Or do they not care and secretly think it's funny? What's your view?
