This is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. But, then again, back when Wall Street last melted down our economy with their reckless, unregulated CDO's, fraudulent evaluations of "securitized" high-risk mortgages, shorting of investments they were pushing on their customers and all the rest, our government decided that the "sanctity of contract" required that we permit companies like AIG to pay multimillion dollar bonuses & for elaborate parties out of taxpayer bailout money, so maybe it's not so crazy for them to make such a demand now.
