THOUGHT FOR THE DAY!

"I am strongly in favor of using poisoned gas against uncivilized tribes. The moral effect should be good...and it would spread a lively terror.... "-- Winston Churchill commenting on the British use of poison gas against the Iraqis after World War I

 

FLASHBACK - What Does Goldman Know That We Don't?

What's odd about the subprime crash is Goldman Sachs Group Inc. A single firm took a position contrary to the rest of Wall Street. Giant Wall Street firms are designed for many things, but not, typically, to express highly idiosyncratic views in the market.

Even more surprising is how little Wall Street seems to have dwelled on how and why Goldman Sachs made its killing. There are insane conspiracy theories -- for instance, that former Goldman chief executive officer and current U.S. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson tipped his old pals, etc. (But then, how did HE know?)

Webmaster's Commentary: 

Yes, just how DID he know?

And if he knew in advance, why didn't he do anything about it?

How did he know?

justice

Either way,something stinks of a REALLY smelly RAT here!
I bettya Greenspan would know,and probably Bernanke,Rubin and Summers TOO!
And why did Lehmans rush to dump their London office 'liquids' before going belly-up in the USA?
Some kind of ARRANGEMENT here?
Then 400 billion goes missing from the books?

Get G/S out of our Treasury and FEDERAL RESERVE,freeze their assets,salaries and golden payoffs,and confiscate ALL THEIR BOOKS FOR investigation/public scrutiny
Freeze up THEIR 'shop',until the SHELVES AND CLOSETS have been examined.
I would RATHER have NO MONEY than FILTHY MONEY!
