Wall Street Piggies Demand More Slop in Public Trough or Else!
Hogs demand more slop in piggie trough or else!
Maybe if the traitors in Congress sweeten the bribes by adding in another 600 BILLION or more and remove those hideous portions about executive pay and golden parachutes, the hogs will flock to the public trough and greedily gorge themselves till their piggie stomachs burst.
Nancy Pelosi, put some options back on the table, our Wall Street friends are needing more of our money!
Pelosi, how can you be so heartless?
Don't you understand that in times like these, pain flows downward and money flows upward?
Those people who lost their homes and are now living in their car?
I'm sure they'd gladly give up their vehicles if it would make Wall Street happy!!
Now Wall Street may shun $700bn bail-out
Fears are mounting that many Wall Street banks and financial firms will refuse to participate in the US government's $700bn bail-out package, leaving global markets and world economies in a perilous state for months to come.
'There is a growing feeling that banks ... might instead decide to tough it out,' said Thomas Caldwell, chairman and CEO of Caldwell Financial, a $1bn-plus fund manager.
But Wall Street analysts, believe the addition of so many terms to the bill might deter potential participants.
One of the least attractive elements is a section designed to curb executive pay at banks that participate in the bail-out package. These include limiting stock-related pay and banning 'golden parachutes' for executives.
'I think this hodge-podge of regulations and rules will be enough to put many [chief executives] off participating,' Caldwell said.
We can't take away BILLION DOLLAR paydays from those poor dears! How do you expect these people to struggle by on only 3.7 BILLION a year?
Wall Street Winners Get Billion-Dollar Paydays
By JENNY ANDERSON April 16, 2008
Hedge fund managers, those masters of a secretive, sometimes volatile financial universe, are making money on a scale that once seemed unimaginable, even in Wall Street’s rarefied realms.
One manager, John Paulson, made $3.7 billion last year. He reaped that bounty, probably the richest in Wall Street history, by betting against certain mortgages and complex financial products that held them.
Mr. Paulson, the founder of Paulson & Company, was not the only big winner. The hedge fund managers James H. Simons and George Soros each earned almost $3 billion last year, according to an annual ranking of top hedge fund earners by Institutional Investor’s Alpha magazine, which comes out Wednesday.
George Harrison's "Piggies"
Have you seen the little piggies
Crawling in the dirt
And for all the little piggies
Life is getting worse
Always having dirt to play around in.
Have you seen the bigger piggies
In their starched white shirts
You will find the bigger piggies
Stirring up the dirt
Always have clean shirts to play around in.
In their styes with all their backing
They don't care what goes on around
In their eyes there's something lacking
What they need's a damn good whacking.
Everywhere there's lots of piggies
Living piggy lives
You can see them out for dinner
With their piggy wives
Clutching forks and knives to eat their bacon.
..That's on top of the $630 billion on Sept.29, after first deal with the devil went south; which was $300 billion more than usual; not to mention the mega-trillions that the fucKers already swiped!!
The DOW is dropping like a rock and various pundits on CNN have slyly inferred that it's the fault of Congress for not passing the No Banker Left Behind Act soon enough.
