THERE IS NOT ENOUGH MONEY TO PAY FOR ALL FUTURE LOSSES on CDS.

so you can either bankrupt AIG and then like 50% of banking system or bankrupt USA, if goverment wants taxpayer to continue with covering CDS contracts.

or you can simply cancel all CDS contracts, because most of them were based on fraud (there were never money to cover the losses) anyway and save a big part of system.
