Can the House tax your bonus? Yes Mr. Pisani, they can.

Pisani said that a "bill of attainder" ex post facto-after the fact, isn't allowed.

The Constitution on this "bill of attainder."

Says who?

How about the Supreme Court?

This argument didn't work for Nixon; how in the heck could it then work for AIG???

The trader's argument is specious.

If they want to tax the bonuses, they will be taxed.
