In the hopes that we can please think about our current situation with a clear head let us stop referring to these giant cogs we created in our crazy machine as people.  AIG does not have knees... it has broken parts in a machine that is breaking down:

Too late. Jean Wieson, who has lived down the block for 24 years, had stopped her car in front of Mr. Haas’s house before he arrived home. She was angry about the millions of dollars in bonuses paid to its executives, the credit-default swaps that brought American International Group to its knees, the $170 billion the federal government has spent to prop it up. "It makes me absolutely sick," she said. "It’s despicable. It’s disgusting what these people have done. They should be forced to give every cent back."
