Many analysts are suggesting that members of the current White House administration are dead set against FTC approval of the proposed Grifols/Talecris merger until Cerberus has submitted their plan to pay back every dime, plus compounded interest, of their US taxpayer bailout funds.
Every Talecris employee would certainly agree with this approach since the vast majority won't receive one dollar extra in their future paychecks should the merger be approved. Even though Cerberus gladly accepted their hard earned money and used some of it to pay out huge Cerberus bonuses to Chrysler executives!
Why you people aren't mounting a letter writing campaign to Stern and the board has many of us wondering why you haven't taken a stance.
