[...] 4. Have no Shame. – Speaking of bailouts, now that the economy is on its way to recovery the big banks took TARP money are are reluctant to give it back. They realize that this is free money that can be better spent on bonuses and dividends for investors. These are the actions of people who don’t care what others think about them and look at everyone else as suckers. It’s clear that Wall Street is giving Main Street America the finger. [...]

Barry,

That is more like it…now you understand how everyone but GS feels.

I have a friend that is an extremely successful IRS/FX prop trader. He is worth every penny he earns as he does not work for a company that needed or received a bailout. That is how we view you as well.

Cheers!

On taxes…We should raise them until we have a balanced budget. Until then, we’ve been paying the INFLATION tax (a wealth tax). Nobody knows how much taxes they pay until they consider that.

Two generations of cowards running the GOP have been pimping “tax cuts” because they don’t have the balls to come out and demand spending cuts. In real terms, the only tax cuts that mean anything are spending cuts. Deficit dollars just compete with the dollars I have in my pocket.

I hope those A-holes keep it up for a little while.
One of these days, the working men and women of this country are going to wake up and put your sorry heads on a stick, and they will all be called terrorists.
So it goes…
