I thought we were talking about QE purchases; not the greater issue of socializing losses. I don't disagree with you on the wider point. But there's a difference between GS (and everyone else, including 'main street') seeing their losses socialized and GS making money on QE2 purchases. The first instance I agree, the second I don't.
I guess I prefer to see the nuances of situations.
I wonder what makes you dont believe it or otherwise NOT SEE IT.

Quote from jueco2005:
I think the past few years have given an IRREFUTABLE evidence that this is the case. (Help yourself finding them; there books, movies, endless internet pages on the matter)
Every year we have bigger and bigger TOO BIG TO FAIL enterprises. In other words MONOPOLIES.
We have a great corporate system in place. Privatize gains and socialize losses. So, socialism is good after all. It all depends you are socialism things for.
That's why I (despite being Cuban by birth) don't reject certain forms of social programs that protect society. But this I live to my personal discretion.
I'm actually interested why you think that's the case; I hear it a lot, and I get that it's somewhat convenient to believe the great big assholes of the Street are benefiting from everyone's misfortune....................................
