I agree. I remember when people got all up in arms about some company executives going on a spa retreat a few weeks after the first bailout. I was like "People, you do realize that this kind of thing has to be booked months, if not an entire year, in advance, and usually involves at the very least a nonrefundable deposit, and that a few weeks in advance the company had probably ALREADY paid for the retreat and could not get the money back. Not going on the retreat would not have saved anybody any money, it would just have wasted money that was already spent."
But hey, why should executives get to enjoy the benefits of things they already pay for? They should have to throw their money into giant sucking holes just like the rest of us!

Nobody listens to me. I'm a crazy libertarian.
