Dividends are the worst, isn't that supposed to be the money a company thats solvent pays out? If you're insolvent, no dividend, makes sense to me...

I, personally, would have reduced all salaries at all institutions taking the money, either directly or as payment of contracts, to US GS rates as a condition of bailing them out. No profits to anyone, no bonuses, not dividends, nothing until all moneys repaid at interest, either. Peter -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
