>>many firms would have suffered irreperable damage.
well, let them suffer these irreperable damages! The ATM machines at citigroup would still be working if they went bankrupt. The government, FDIC style, should have let them all fail and then take over their balance sheets.
What does that mean?? We should all get upset about the bailouts. It is your money too?? The only ones who don’t get upset are those who either work for the TARP banks, or own stocks of TARP banks, or prime at TARP banks, or own homes in and around NYC.
Stevieb, you and I can take this baby to 500! Lead the way.
I’m also of an ethnic group. That should give you some ammo for posts. Oh, and in my country we favor lamb, not goat.
GS was not the only counterparty to the “AIG trades.” If there were not an orderly arket for all of those swaps, the MAJORITY of which were originated by AIG, then many firms would have suffered irreperable damage.
I agree that AIG should be bankrupted but not GS I’m not sure why your hatred at GS is so strong.
I had really great, rare, rack of lamb last Friday night!!!! Yummmm.
“I am looking for a dominatrix as well. Do you give out brownstoner discounts??!”
You’re going to get whipped with a lamb kabob!

Expert, I love lamb as well, especially lamb kabob marinated in olive oil, cumin, tumeric, and fennel seeds.
By the way, I am looking for a dominatrix as well. Do you give out brownstoner discounts??!

“Salad is not a traditional Thanksgiving dish.”
I SAID I Americanized the meal!
“But it is very traditional to still be having left-overs 5 days later.”
Yippy!! I’m doing something traditionally Thanksgivingy.
