“ Companies across America are awarding top executives multimillion-dollar “retention” bonuses shortly before declaring bankruptcy”.

Shouldn’t this read: “Companies’ top executives are awarding themselves million dollar bonuses before declaring bankruptcy”.

The moral hazard here is insane.

Secondly, I do find it interesting how rotten execs can hide behind a corporate brand. Corporate scandals are often household names, not so the individuals who were the true instigators of the scandal.
