This isn't a case of rewarding talent. This is blackmail. And I don't think its illegal - I don't think prosecutions are coming unless evidence of book cooking comes to light. In this case these bonuses are intentionally disconnected from profits so there is no benefit to cooking the books.
Then how would Memestreams solve this? It's reputation. If you can't bring them to trial (and I disagree. blackmail is illegal. as is squandering tax payer money) then publicly shame them. Make it so that they cannot work. Make them OJ Simpson.
I occurs that if AIG simply withheld the bonuses and the parties were forced to sue they'd be forced to show their faces publicly.
