I agree with Mackenzie. He should have used a globe instead of a map to make this, because this projection makes the poles appear much larger than they should be. Greenland and Northern Canada are much too big.
The problem is that AIG does a lot more than what failed their company; they're an insurer, not a bank. The government should pay for them to disband their banking division and be done with it.
That said, getting upset about the bonuses won't make it better, as it was 1% of the bailout paid to them. If you want to get upset about bailing them out, that's fine (I disagree) but getting upset at the bonuses draws attention away from the real problem.
This guy donating his bonus does nothing, and he's just calling attention to himself. He should've saved the bonus since he will not be hired by any company on wall street again.
