U.S. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson says golden parachute payments will be banned and the salary deals of bankers "clawed back" as part of the government's $250 billion bailout of the financial sector.
U.S. President George W. Bush Tuesday followed Europe's lead, announcing the $250 billion plan to help stabilize the financial system.
Using authority granted in the country's $700 billion bailout bill, Bush said the Treasury would buy into banks in return for shares.
However, Paulson stressed taxpayers would get a return on their money and banking excesses would be brought to an end.
"Institutions that sell shares to the government will accept restrictions on executive compensation, including a clawback provision and a ban on golden parachutes during the period that Treasury holds equity issued through this program," he said.
And the rich get richer - or at least they get protection/help... I'm not so into this, when Joe Blow who runs a small business next door is also going bankrupt and gets no help whatsoever! :cofuse:

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- The federal government on Tuesday announced an extraordinary and historic direct investment in the nation's banks - the biggest bet ever made with taxpayer dollars on the U.S. financial system.
As a start, the Treasury will pump $250 billion into financial institutions. Nine of the nation's largest banks have already agreed to take the capital and in return will give preferred shares to taxpayers and accept limits on executive pay. Half of the money, or $125 billion, will go to the nine large banks.
