He and his ilk got cocky back in 2008 when after having profited from the mortgage debacle, they received hundreds of billions in taxpayer dollars as gift bailouts from Bush’s Treasury Secretary, Hank Paulson, and not one of them went to jail but Martha Stewart did. John Thain had run Merrill Lynch into the ground, Paulson gave Bank of America billions to buy it, and Thain responded by giving his executives four billion in taxpayer money as bonuses. Bonuses for what???

Martha Stewart...went to jail for lying. She was a Stock Broker at one time...

She is still probably an idiot.
