AIG execs went on $500K retreat within days of taxpayer bailout
AIG executives spent $500,000 at an exclusive resort just days after the U.S. government agreed to spend $85 billion to protect the giant insurer from collapse, according to Rep. Henry Waxman, the California Democrat who chairs the House Oversight Committee.

2. Now this has got me seriously pissed off.
Something like $26,000 went for "spa" services. Uh huh. As Drama says on Entourage a "rub and a tug?" Jeeeeeeeeeeezus.
