Pork vs. Punishment
| Quote: | Auto execs: Sore. Bankers? Soar!
Bank executives will get to fly their company jets after all.
House legislation placing restrictions on financial institutions that get money from the $700 billion Troubled Asset Relief Program had included a provision that would have prohibited the bailed-out bankers from owning or leasing private aircraft.
But Kansas is a center of aircraft manufacturing, and Kansas lawmakers complained that the provision could reduce aircraft orders and cost jobs. This week, House Financial Services Committee Chairman Barney Frank, D-Mass., author of the bill, lifted the jet ban.
Relinquishing the jets was part of a provision to limit executive compensation, the same type of limits included in government loan agreements with General Motors Corp. and Chrysler LLC last month.
Chrysler, GM and Ford Co. executives caused a stir in Washington when they flew their private jets into town last year to plead their case for a bailout from Congress.
"We have to be careful about Congress overreacting," said Rep. Dennis Moore, a Kansas Democrat who noted that the industry employs more than 44,000 workers in Kansas and suppliers employ many more.
So remember, folks: According to Congress, it's only a waste of taxpayer money if auto execs are the ones flying private. |

Ha Ha. The funny thing about that article is that although the private sector is giving up its private jets due to the financial crisis, congress, the senate and administration refuse to give up theirs yet they lecture the private sector.
I think its a bit rich to mouth off at the autos when Pelosi is jetting around the country in a 757 because she wants a bed to sleep in.
