*Also: "Treasury's standard agreement included a section allowing Congress to impose conditions retroactively." So was this not applied to bailout money to AIG, for example, as such would've allowed gov't to retake the money because of the exec bonus payments?

“If you have gone to the best schools and graduated from Oxford and Cambridge, and so on, you have instilled in you the understanding that there are certain things it would not do to say; actually, it would not do to think.

The ideas of the overwhelming majority of the population, who don’t attend Harvard, Princeton, Oxford and Cambridge, enable them to react like human beings, as they often do. There is a lesson there for activists.”
