class warfare is finally getting out in the open. although the WM CEO walking away with $20MM for 17 days work seems wrong - i guess you gotta try and go after the BOD. i mean, dude didnt even know his company had been snatched by FDIC and sold. third party, or some would say a second party , is gonna emerge.
