One thing not discussed — it is just too PC — is that GS is the most Jewish and most New York of the major invesment houses. Its last president, Jon Winkelried (spelling off the top of my head), was a big Jewish donor, but don’t let that fool you. Many of GS bigwigs give to make themselves feel good; when it comes down to the protection of the state of Israel, many are found wanting. Now Obama could dump all over Israel, which he has begun to do, and New York is silent. But you start messing with someone’s paycheck? Not in New York you don’t.
It may be un-PC, but it is a reality. I do not know about GS's clientele, but young brokers are told to go after their "natural markets". Let us not forget how "Bernie" worked that angle. The question, if and when will like the brokers using the "F" word will the clients start getting buyers remorse over the Bamster when their Ox is gored...
I really, really despise the worms at goldman-sucks. Have for years. Bunch of money-grubbing fascist liberals who have manipulated the markets for far too long.
Hope the assh*les end up under a noisy bridge living in cardboard boxes.
I fail to see what your point is. Perhaps you could explain it to me.
U.S. Jews supported Reagan. Maybe some of them will come back to the GOP. The method of Obama’s madness becomes clearer every day.
Goldman still got their bailout money for undue hedging which was laundered via AIG.
They are still way ahead.
This is fake anger
Bunch of stupid Libs continue to vote against their own interests. Same as the Union thugs.
Pray for America and Our Troops
Here's my conspiracy theory - whites voted for Obama to tell the race hustlers to STFU. Deep down, most of them knew Obama will crash, and then they can say "See, we tried to elect a black president and look what happened" and conservatives will return to power.
“Wait until Monday morning and the rumors start flying about Drudge’s reports that the One has decided to personally review and manage ALL bank and other Wall Street salaries”
FoxNews is now reporting that this would cover executive salaries at ALL publicly traded companies. IOW, if your company is listed on the NYSE or the NASDAQ, you’re covered.
My heart bleeds. I hope the tax sticks.
that’s why I have a sell order in for opening on Monday
But my surviving IRA account will probably take a huge bath anyway
We are all suckas
“It is time to oust this communist mutherf****r......”
Laz...Democratic presidents always believe their own sh%^...
JFK dissed the folks that stole the votes in Chicago that made him president....
Bill and Hillary pissed on those bought them their presidency...the health insurers and pharmaceutical companies who thought they’d make out like bandits on national health....
....and Obama just crapped on the guys who thought they’d bought the US Treasury as their final backstop against their failing hedges....these guys have more money than God...it’ll be an amusing ride...just hope it does’nt turn tragic...for eveybody.
So are you upset that Obama can make such a law (if it sticks) or are you upset they are taxing million dollar bonues to losers who are getting tax money?
Tomorrow will be an interesting day on the street.
If the government can do it to them it can do it to us.
