Sorry but that doesn't fly for me.
People are getting layed off en masse--and not because they screwed up. But if their firms aren't getting bailed out, those who remain aren't getting bonusses.
This is my taxpayer money.
And 50-80K is not "low" by national standards as a salary.

There is no reason to give these bonuses when you are going to fail as a firm and taking taxpayers' money. It's robbery, plain and simple. I did not say my taxpayer dollars could go to that person's bonus. And I don't believe that 500 million is going to those who performed well. That's got to be a fallacy.
