I'd like to give them credit for doing more than one right thing: balancing the budget matters too.

At the same time I don't want them to get off the hook for doing the wrong thing for so longâat such a cost in both lives and treasure. All those people are owed more than just being let out of prison.

Something along the lines of taking the $12M first year savings and cutting everyone a $25k check should help them land on their feet. It would be a wise investment in any case, but better than a new suit and $25 bucks.
