Will the stress ever end for Uncle Vik? Amidst speculation that the FDIC wants his head on a platter, the delisting of his corporation from the Dow, his landlord removing the company's name from the corporate headquarters building and Citi prominently absent from the list of financial institutions repaying the TARP funds, now his pay will be decided by a government "czar."
Now I am all for limiting executive pay for rescued companies after the debacle we've been through, but I'm not sure appointing "czars" all over the place is the answer, no matter how astute they are. If memory serves the last czars were overrun by an angry mob and eventually terminated with extreme prejudice.
