These investigators are doing the Lord’s work. Let’s support them and all continue in our own ways to drive a stake through the heart of the vampire squid.
Goldman Sachs is essentially a parasite that has attached itself to the US government. It gives nothing, takes everything. Now it’s saying that investigative reporters are badly damaging [...]

Goldman says Matt Taibbi, Zero Hedge, Louise Story, and Janet Tavakoli have become risks to its business
Memo to Greece: Declare war on Goldman Sachs
New Deal 2.0, “a project of the Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt Institute” opines the best way for Europe and Greece to deal with Goldman Sachs is by declaring war on them. Literally. Emphasis added.
Declare war on Goldman Sachs and other global financial firms that created this mess. Send the troops, the planes, the tanks, and [...]
Bankster news
Noose tightens for Goldman, as Merkel calls Greek swaps a “scandal.” The vampire squid may find Europe far less pliant and obedient than Washington.
Taibbi: Wall Street’s bailout hustle. You didn’t think they’d stop looting, did you?
The best man for the job… is never Geithner. Unless of course you’re a bankster.

Goldman Sachs helped Greece to mask its true debt
Goldman Sachs helped the Greek government to mask the true extent of its deficit with the help of a derivatives deal that legally circumvented the EU Maastricht deficit rules. At some point the so-called cross currency swaps will mature, and swell the country’s already bloated deficit.
Goldman made hefty fees, you can be quite sure of [...]
NYT. Goldman pushed AIG to edge, profited mightily from it
NYT has a long, detailed timeline of what happened and when. Required reading.
Clusterstock is even blunter. Goldman Sachs Killed AIG, but then bizarrely says it was all AIG’s fault.
So it was just a coincidence those at the NY Fed and in the US government who gave Goldman such a sweetheart deal just happened to be [...]
Best response to Goldman shocked, just shocked, at reports of $100 mil bonus for CEO
Goldman has yet to state if the actual bonus number is lower or higher.
Goldman Sachs CEO to take $100 million bonus, gives finger to America and Obama
This deliberately arrogant, contemptuous move shows that Goldman cares nothing about the country or anything else except their own greed.
Back to you Mr. President. Who runs the country, Washington DC or investment banks? Lloyd Blankfein just spat in your face. What will you do about it?
How Paulson’s people colluded with Goldman to destroy AIG and get a backdoor bailout
David Fiderer at HuffPo connects the dots for us.
It’s time to put an end to the plunder of the country by thugs in expensive suits. They need to go to prison. (Yes, I assume many of them are guilty of multiple crimes.)
The vampire squid makes another enemy
WSJ
Let me get this straight. Is [Ex-CEO of AIG Hank] Greenberg saying the machinations of Goldman Sachs were responsible for the disastrous failure of AIG amid the recent financial crisis? “Well, it certainly wouldn’t be difficult to come to that conclusion.”
The response from the White House on all of this has either been stonewalling or [...]
Have a vampire squidy Xmas

Cap and Trade. Think it’s not a scam? think again
The Story of Cap & Trade from Story of Stuff Project on Vimeo.
Naturally our favorite vampire squid, Goldman Sachs, as well as other such parasites, have their tentacles deep into the “trade” part of cap and trade, as well as intending to game the system so they make billions. Then there are the separate issues [...]
Senior Goldman execs buying guns to protect against populist uprising
Maybe someone should tell them a pistol just isn’t all effective in an apartment (because you have to know the assailant is coming) plus the bullets could easily go through walls and kill others. Not that an investment banker would care much about that. Also, concealed weapons permits are near impossible to get in NYC.
Maybe [...]
That Goldman donation of $500 million to charity, isn’t.
Gosh, who could guess Goldman would be deceptive instead, pretending to be charitable when they actually weren’t. The Epicurean Dealmaker explains.
Mish doesn’t think Goldman is doing “God’s work”
Click through for his “Lloyd’s Prayer”
Here’s his “Pledge of Subservience”
I pledge Allegiance to the Fed
of the United States of America
and to the corruption for which it stands,
one nation under Goldman, easily divisible,
with criminal acts against all.
The Gospel according to Goldman
As a graduate in theology, I was interested to read that Goldman Sachs believes the Gospels promote self interest.
However, I have learned there is an apocryphal basis for that position. It turns out that biblical archaeologists have unearthed a little-known text that offers a somewhat different understanding of the teachings of Jesus. In this new [...]
