The Real Faces

Here is a disturbing look at how far America has fallen. The current "American dream" as expressed by a classful of young people? Food in the fridge, jobs for their parents, and not being constantly afraid of becoming homeless. And they've noticed that the available jobs no longer offer people a chance to live up to their potential.

AIG is getting so much bad press about their bonuses (as well they should) that they are now advising all their employees to hide the fact of where they work. Don't tell people where they work, don't wear AIG t-shirts or buttons, etc. Which means there are idiots who are angry over the AIG bigwigs taking out that anger on the grunts and others who will never see a penny more than their base wage.
