Many of the People Running Wall Street and D.C. Are – LITERALLY – Psychopaths

According to psychologists and sociologists – many on Wall Street and D.C. are not like you and me. They are literally psychopaths.

Reuters reported Tuesday:

In a survey of 500 senior executives in the United States and the UK, 26 percent of respondents said they had observed or had firsthand knowledge of wrongdoing in the workplace, while 24 percent said they believed financial services professionals may need to engage in unethical or illegal conduct to be successful.

I am heading for the hills right now, these are DANGEROUS PEOPLE.
Oh my god.

Quote from nutmeg:

Take Charlie Rangle. cheats on taxes, uses a rent subsidized apt for campaign headquarters, get censured by Congress (to name a few).

He gets endorsed by Bloomberg (i respect Bloomberg opinion) gets endorsed by Cuomo ( altar boy) and endorsed by "drain the swamp" Pelosi (fuvkin figures)

And he wins re election.

Clearly this makes sense to somebody.

I am one dumb mofo. I don't get it.

----------------------------------------

Rangel, Pelosi, et. al. are above the law. You really think the SEC and FBI will go after their masters?

Yeah, that will happen the same day the IRS goes after Geithner like they would a small businessman.

In the meantime, the rest of the country gets regulated to death with crap like Dodd-Frank, Sarbanes-Oxley, etc.

Quote from Eight:

Deregulation has brought us the age of the psychopath, the intraspecies predator. Read up on them, their behavior won't shock you after you understand them. I have several in my environs currently end every one of them is cutting a wide swath through the humanity around them.

It has nothing to do with "deregulation"...
It's all about changes American social culture since the 60s...
Mirrored in TV shows and movies and commercials...
Where "work ethic" has been replaced by an "exploitation ethic".

Correct. We've been swamped by sociopaths who complain about socialism while giving themselves tax holidays and bailouts. These lowlifes can get away with their behaviour because we have voters who don't mind getting bent for the next 3 generations.
