It is all over the headlines about various Democrats in Congress strutting about threatening to take back the AIG Bonus money through passing special taxes. I guess it is no surprise that the media is not raising any red flags on this issue. I have a few points I want to raise here about why this action frightens me.
First and foremost is the fact that I do not even think this is legal. I know the Democrats are really not that into the whole Constitution thing unless it is convenient. In case any do want to give the Constitution a glance they should look under Article 1, Section 9, Clause 3 where it is stated “No Bill of Attainder or ex post facto law shall be passed.” Now I never took Latin in
