"Goldman will probably be blacklisted from working with eurozone governments"...

Goldman Sachs is a criminal enterprise... but one of Obama's favorites....

I suppose I’m really reaching, but this seems momentous. It reminds me of the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers. A sign that a great financial power was, in fact, rotten and hollow.

That will have knock on effects in every arena if that happens.

I would love to see Goldman Sachs go under and all the management put in chains for life.

"The logic of the conspiracy theorists in this regard is, of course, impeccable: Goldman alumnus Josh Bolten runs the White House, while his former boss, Hank Paulson, runs the Treasury. They both speak regularly to former Treasury Secretary Bob Rubin, now over at Citigroup, who ran Goldman before Paulson and who keeps Paulson and Bolton dangling like puppets on a string. They all supposedly touch base with the heads of the Italian and Canadian central banks—both Goldman alumni—and with Robert Zoellick, head of the World Bank, ex Goldman. What's more Paulson is now getting his advice on how to handle the crisis from Ken Wilson, the recently retired Goldman partner and financial-institutions M&A banker, who Paulson just recruited to Washington to help him out. Already at Treasury were Goldman alumni Dan Jester, Anthony Ryan, David Nason and Bob Hoyt, the department's general counsel. And—the conspiracy crowd can't help but point out—Neel Kashkari, 35, a former vice-president at Goldman who Paulson recruited as assistant secretary of international affairs in 2006, has just been appointed—by Paulson—to run, on an interim basis, the new $700 billion bailout fund."

Hey, I predicted this on FR today! Another one I got right. Just wait until the “Operation Albatross” story I broke comes true.

parsy, the clearvoyeur, or whatever that word is

Please let it be so. See tagline.

Goldman Sachs = “Banksters”

[NeoCaveman]

“The first thing you need to know about Goldman Sachs is that it’s everywhere. The world’s most powerful investment bank is a great vampire squid wrapped around the face of humanity, relentlessly jamming its blood funnel into anything that smells like money. In fact, the history of the recent financial crisis, which doubles as a history of the rapid decline and fall of the suddenly swindled dry American empire, reads like a Who’s Who of Goldman Sachs graduates.”

After the (blank) hit the fan only a fool would take advice and/or buy a financial product from Goldman. Your used car salesman is more honest than these Ivy League MBAs.
