Goldman Sachs and Burger King

[20000miles]

GS and others of their ilk are immoral because they evidently think themselves somehow entitled to such an disproportionate amuount of the wealth on this globe.

"I want to keep what I earn" is considered greedy and inhumane.

"I want to take what you have" is considered selfless and progressive.

Liam, are you not listening to the man telling you in plain english the facts.

Were it not for the trillions given in bailouts Goldman Sacks would be bankrupt, gone and padlocked. (likewise the Euro big boys)

Who do you think got the 187 billion given to AIG. Surely you don't think it was AIG.

You are looking at the 10 billion crumbs when the 9 trillion dollar cakes is being gobbled out the back

GS have paid back that money plus. So they are still giving, in other words people should be hoping for more Goldman Sachs and less Fannie Mae.

Now you're on the trolly.

Also important to note:

When I say thing which are untrue - I'm making a debatable point.
When you say thing which are untrue - You are telling lies.

I must credit Don Boudreaux for that line. All of his letters to the editor are pure gold.

This is a thread for people to vent their spleens at this Luciferian organisation. I notice people who hate GS back it up with links to articles and news videos on the other extremely annoying 2 threads.

Those who think they do "God's Work" please back it up with indepth analytic articles and please explain to me how Fiat Currency, Fractional Reserve Banking and derivatives have made 21st century finance a joy to behold.

Burger King workers don't earn enouugh because the minimum wage is too low. If the government made the minimum wage $50 per hour, the workers would be much better off.

$50?! You monster! Why not make it $1,000/h and we'll all be rich!

But we'd never be able to afford what they'd have to charge for a Whopper at those wage levels!

You would if you worked at Burger King.

Are you aware of the carnage Collaterialised Debt Obligations and Credit Default Swaps have caused?

What is credible or reputable then? The same sources that said 10 years ago that there could never be another bust, recession or depression? The same sources that said the credit crunch was over 2 years ago?

How about Jim Cramer on CNBC telling us Bear Stearns are perfectly fine?

I listen to the weathermen that have been outside.
