The war on investors continues. Since Granholm's comments, Chrysler has declared bankruptcy. I wonder how the left will try to politicize the bankruptcy process.

If I were not greedy, I would be on welfare and in public housing....greed is good.

Hussein has already lectured those funds....telling the world that they have not sacrificed enough in his name!

If those hedge funds hold out and do force Chryslyer into Chapter 11, they will have done a service for this nation.

Perella Weinberg Partners, Stairway Capital, and Oppenheimer Funds response to Governor Granholm:
"F*** you Madame Governor."
Man Granholm's got some brass ones. They bondholders are being offered 33 cents on the dollar and they're understandably not happy with being robbed. Because they want to be paid back the money they lent in good faith to Chrysler they're "greedy".
Unreal.

It makes little difference, the non agreement will still be funded by the tax payers, as I heard the bond holders had their position insured by that great company AIG.. Bunch of crooks.

Greed must be redefined by us. Greed is taking from other people what they earned. We the people to Uncle Sam: Don’t be so greedy also don’t be so envious.
We have allowed the left to define everything and make the language over to be code words for their concepts. Now they merely have to use a word or two to trigger their mindless minions.

I heard an analyst this morning state that the funds who will not give in to Obama have a sizable amount of teacher pension plans in their mix.

Those car companies, greed built those. All the buildings, computers, houses, EVERYTHING in this country was built by greed. Because somewhere, someone, thought they could make some money, to buy things that might make their life more comfortable and secure, which some other greedy bastard was selling for the same reason.
Greed works. Like everything else in life, unchecked greed destroys, but in moderation, it works every time, all the time.
To: reaganaut1
those are the ones that have been previously charged with having made a lot of money by flipping paper, t
The Socialist are changing the language. Note that she use the term charged with,as if a firm whose purpsose is to make money is somehow criminal in nature when it does what it is supposed to do.

Oh, and who is greedier, Obama for trying to TAKE OVER EVERYTHING? Or businesses who are simply trying to make money?
To: reaganaut1
The hedge fund managers are doing the right thing: maximizing the return for their investors. If they didn’t, the investors would take their money elsewhere.

So, what is wrong with that? A company purchases insurance to protect itself from a loss and now it is wrong to collect on the insurance when the loss is incurred?
Class warfare is for socialists.

the left is actually relishing this. They have been looking to get their hooks into hedge funds for a long time.
