I also think that they should have been made to pay it back when they are stable again. Those half million dollar vacations that AIG immediately sent their executives and families on were just a slap in the face to the working people.

Separating the funds just doesn't work when millions of customers are involved - banks will be paying back public funds first when things are fully stabilized.

AIG - probably a scheduled event - actually, it involved primarily broker customers - to encourage the flow of business in the future and reward the past.
