    Does not announcing a Christmas party = joining the war on Christmas? If so, I think there would be a lot more banks on the list.

    @14 The part that was edited was when the Sandlers (husband + wife who sold GoldenWest to Wachovia) were speaking, there was a headline below that said "People who should be shot." I guess you can't make death threats even through comedy.

    Obama could do whatever he wants and he will be perceived as doing no wrong. Do you think his constituency, like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P36x8rTb3jI person, even know that we have a Treasury Secretary?

    @10 I agree there were not a lot PIK toggles in the grand scheme of HY bonds in '05/'06/'07. But the topic is on LBO-related HY bonds, and the % of LBO HY paper with PIK toggles is much higher than the overall HY paper with PIK toggles.

    When the Banks came for my bonus, I remained silent; I was just going to waste it on blow and h00kers. When they cut my Seamless allowance, I remained silent; Seamless made me fata$$ anyways. When they came for the Christmas party, I did not speak out; Who likes open bar anyways? When they came for my coworkers, I remained silent; Better them than me. When they came for me, there was no one left to speak out

    Can someone please calculate how much these bonuses and profits of Wall Street banks have contributed to the coffers of the Federal Government? Wall Streeters are one of the top if not top reasons why the Top 1% paid for 40% of federal taxes (and only received 22% of gross income)

    @11 It's analagous to the statement: there is no such thing as a rogue trader who makes money. There's a culture or view that those who make money while "breaking / bending the rules" are just cunning or out-smarting the competition
