    Just puke for gods sake

    Mr. Market. Get on your knees, hug the bowl, and let it all out. None of this up 2% down 2% nonsense. A good old fashion bargain with god that you'll "never do it again". 1000-2000 points -it will be all over and the healing can begin.

    Now banks are socialist?

    Benevolent? Charitable? LEH gets split in two and they dump the "ooze" in a bad bank financed by banks/shareholders. In doing so, they avoid armageddon from the forced liquidation of LEH's assests and subsequent triggered markdowns in other banks derivative portfolios. How can these banks...
