OK, so why not buy investments in them?

In capitalism there’s always a way to get a piece of the pie.

This may seem like a crazy question but...is it possible that these are the same entities that put our congressmen/women in compromising positions thereby controlling our taxpayer purse strings?

I’m amazed at the dysfunction in our Congress.

Every time I see Goldman Sachs I think of the GS exec who came to the Century Plaza Hotel to try out the new furnishings for the rooms remodel and left his ‘buttcrack print’ on the mohair ottoman. My husband remarked on how the team touring same room the next day reviewed the ‘problem’ of this particular fabric showing this a-hole’s buttcrack.

Sorry... Goldman Sachs = buttcrack to me.

Oh no! It was the poor folks, and the government, and the fed, and the CRA. (/s)

Wall Street is already putting its spin out now that the gov’t is about to re-regulate them. A few threads down from this one is a thread blaming everybody but the bankers.

parsy, who hopes conservatives don’t fall for the spin

Sorry, but this guy lacks credibility with me. First of all, he's writing in Rolling Stone. Second of all, he leaves off a major political figure who was frickin' CEO of Goldman Sachs in this article: Jon Corzine, the current governor of New Jersey.

Why does he leave Corzine out? Probably because the governor is trailing in the polls and this loser doesn't want to hurt his chances of getting re-elected.

Yes, it's a Goldman Sachs CONSPIRACY. Rolling Stone is an entertainment magazine directly mostly at the sort of informed, thoughtful people who are into recreational drug use. PJ O' Rourke used to be fun to read (not even sure if he still writes for them), but why waste your time reading "serious" articles from Rolling Stone? Time magazine is laughable enough as it is.

Yes, I'm sure many here can go into how many prominent "too big to fail" economists and beltway insiders have connections to Goldman Sachs ...or GM & Chrysler ...or some other big corp. Big freaking deal. They all probably have the same taste in ties, too. The real problem is that the government has too much power, is always gaining more power, and the crowd that operates Wall Street has been joined at the hip with the ruling class in Washington.
