Cheap Irony


Whenever I watch television I see an ubiquitous series of commercials featuring adorable moppets who wake their parents up with financial worries about mortgages, insurance,  diversification, and financial planning.  At the end of the commercial, the child is mollified when the parents say soothingly, "It's OK, we're with AIG."   Relieved, the child then goes back to bed.  Today we learn that AIG is one of the Wall Street banks teetering on the verge of collapse.  Time for the moppets to begin waking up screaming and wetting their beds again.....
