Apparently layoffs at JPMorgan, which recently decided to forgo Christmas this year, will continue this week, with employees in corporate finance being shown the door beginning Thursday.

Bess, when is JPM going to get bailed out a la BSC, AIG, C style on a Sunday night?
When is Diamond going to issue the all encompassing, "We're well capitalized" tagline?
When will CNBC be setting up a reporter infront of corporate headquarters with a sick sense of schachenfreud with hopes of getting a peep of employees walking out with cardboard boxes?
Disgusting. The whole thing.

"That means we lose to the market by, you know, over a half a trillion dollars, year after year after year. And investors have to know about that, because it speaks to a real flaw in our system, where the financial system is consuming an excessive share of the economy’s resources…it turns out the financial sector subtracts value from society."

wtf ads for the Book of Mormon on DB now?
A bit early to be laying the groundwork for Romney '12, eh?

2, Diamond, from American Gladiator? "Schachen freud?" Ze germans?
I totally agree...absolutely disgusting. Why should tax payers be funding padded joust tournaments and tennis ball guns? Out of hand; out of pocket. Turbo would've had the decency to look for foreign investors before shaking ze ol' tin can.

This is nice and in the holiday spirit. The 10,000 JPM is laying off at WaMu in Seattle should also be feeling the love.
