Fannie Mae Bailout: Taxing Americas Poorest Citizens to
Help the Richest

Count me in with Philip Greenspun:

In Roman times the employees of Fannie Mae would be decimated, i.e., they would draw lots and 90 percent of them would beat the unlucky 10 percent to death with clubs. What would be a modern equivalent? At the very least taxpayers should have the satisfaction of seeing the highest paid 100 Fannie Mae employees fired with two weeks of severance pay (it can?t be that hard to find replacements given that the current staff?s primary achievements have been accounting fraud and then insolvency).
