  1. There market cap was very low also. They were on the brink of a run, you can’t deny that. Blankfein was calling Paulson three times a day while there market was plummeting.

    If it had not been for Paulson at the treasury they would have gone under.

    it is not bribery. it is not even their enemies. it is a cost of doing business. it costs money to grease the wheels.

  5. The poll was about Goldman - but what about the "Let's hope we're all rich and retired before this house of cards falls." (CNBC House Of Cards special) e-mail from one of the ratings agencies?
    If that isn't as close to a confession as you can get, what is? If they back-track that up the chain, where would that lead?
    What's taking so long?

  6. If you actually knew what you were talking about, you wouldn't have just made a fool of yourself like you just did.

    My only advice is to get some education relevant to economics, political science and psychology

    You can start with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cognitive_dissonance

    Learn these things and you will become a much better investor and you might just loose that tin-foil hat (assuming you are willing to let go of it, which should be easy if you are not motivated by spite!).

    Im out.

  8. I see your taking your response from the Goldman defense manual. You guys say the same thing every time. I am starting to think there is a small group of defenders trained in there defense, they all say the same thing.
