Liddy made the admission before the House that the AIG brand has been damaged too severely to operate under the AIG name going forward. Under this scenario, the company has squandered any advertising benefits from prior affiliations and/or advertising initiatives. Taibbi made a good point on MSNBC... that "too big to fail" logically translates into "too big to exist". So, we're back to busting robber barons and enacting anti-monopoly legislation. The Roosevelts' sagacity shines like a distant beacon thru a fog of short-sighted greed. Liddy refused to name names. There are legitimate concerns about the personal safety of the bonus beneficiaries and their families.
