Goldman at the Trough

Karl Denniger of Market-ticker.org explains how Goldman Sachs gamed the system and got paid twice for the AIG collapse:
Banks will pay out a record $140 billion in compensation this year according to the Wall Street Journal. Employees will earn an average of $143,400. Goldman Sachs is expected to rain down $23 billion on its employees. Failed AIG has a bonus pool of $198 million. Yet Repugnants refuse to extend affordable health care to middle class Americans! Is that enough to make you RISE UP! and say I"M NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE?
