AIG may be too big to fail but thankfully its management will be called to account for their conduct.  Americans, while furious about the huge bonuses, know that the tax man is not the answer.  The legal system is the tool designed to protect shareholders from management malfeasance.

That does not recoup the bailout money we taxpayers have had to pay but it may prevent those responsible from benefitting from their greed.
