Quote from ByLoSellHi:
It pains me every time you open your mouth about Goldman or Asia, or just about anything else.
You must work at Goldman at their Asia desk, or something - seriously.
I'll propose this deal for Goldman: Let's go back in time, and they don't get any government money, and the U.S. doesn't bail out AIG or any other entity that owed Goldman money (but couldn't pay without taxpayers footing the bill) because of CDSs or other bets Goldman made with (then) insolvent entities.
Do you think they'd take that deal, and if they did not, what shape would Goldman be in today?
Thanks Joe Taxpayer for your 182 billion dollar bailout of AIG (so Goldman and Buffet could get paid).
