On December 8, 2012, W. J. Hennigan writes in the Los Angeles Time that insurance giant AIG wants to sell a 90 percent stake in Century City, California-based International Lease Finance Corporation, or ILFC, to Chinese investors.
What, another sell-off to the Chinese instead of to the American employees!
Our leadership should get their heads out of the sand and rally support for employee ownership of the profitable AIG unit.

AIG should initiate an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) to extend ownership to ILFC employees.
The Just Third Way system is available under present Federal laws encouraging ESOPs, but it is limited to workers in the for-profit private sector. We now want to get the same changes to the tax, financing and inheritance systems for enabling every man, woman and child in America to become owners through capital credit for buying new capital growth shares in the private sector that would be repaid with the earnings of the new productive assets (“future savings”) represented by those shares. Today over 11 million workers have become owners without requiring them to reduce their consumption to buy the new shares. That helps grow the wealth-producing economy. We now want to do the same for 310 million citizens, including the disabled, to make the free enterprise economy grow faster without inflation, create millions of new growth jobs, and radically shrink the economic power of government and the need under the current system for government to redistribute incomes and wealth of current owners.
