Apparently, they aren't "worth" that, or they'd be working somewhere that could afford to pay them that much.

Fact is, none of the bailed out institutions can afford to pay their staffs at ALL without the sweet, sweet government teat continuing to feed them.

If I agree to hire you to do my taxes for $1 million per hour, are you suddenly "worth" that much, since I have no way to actually pay you? I mean, you were promised that money, so that means you deserve it, right? And I'll never, ever be able to find someone to replace you if I no longer offer that same $1 million per hour package, right?
