Treasury finally getting tough on banks (AmEx)

American Express (AXP, Fortune 500), the New York-based credit card giant, said Wednesday it paid the Treasury Department $340 million to repurchase the warrants the bank issued in January after borrowing $3.4 billion under the Troubled Asset Relief Program. AmEx was among 10 banks that repaid their TARP loans last month.

Just a drop in the ocean, boys.
