You have got be kidding me....

No.

YES Goldman did take TARP money.

Yes, Goldman took TARP money. Goldman didn't need to become a bank holding company to take TARP. They needed to become a bank holding company to borrow from the Fed Discount Window.

BTW, most of the TARP money went to foreign banks.

None of the TARP money went to foreign banks.

thanks to the corrupt idiots in Washington legalizing the Up Tick Rule.

Wow, you're confused! They removed the uptick rule.

Never mind the fact that they were saying to the public one thing about certain fund and at the very same time telling their employees dump it as fast you can this ship is going down.

Based on your previous and comprehensive confusion, I'm afraid to ask you what you're talking about here.

You REALLY beleive Goldman took the money to borrow from the Feds... Yeah right.... NOT!

Yeah the Uptick Rule that caused the meltdown in 2008. The up Tick Rule had been in place since 1938. You don’t even know what I’m talking about by mentioning the Up Tick Rule. That flew over your head.

Hey kid go do your homework and come back if you learn anything new. In the mean time I’m not wasting my time.
