Great ticker Karl! I'd love to see Hank included among the numerous perp walks this country needs.

Also double "to" typo... "You will not get trust to return to to the financial system"...

Bravo. I hope that letter is archived for the history books or data bases in the remaining century. So that future generations will know that 'yes' some people were smart enough to know what was going on when all of this was happening.

While most of CNBC was still in a 'happy days are here again' mode Rattigan was still questioning transparency on the last hour thingie he does with Maria.

Something happened to that guy.

I' ll post this again. Is it possible the $250 billion was forced on the chosen 9 to guarantee there wouldn't be a treasury auction failure? That is the only reason I can come up with that makes sense for why they accepted the government money. It also may explain why some banks got $25B and others more or less. Does it correlate with their usual participation in treasury auctions???

Our financial system is a total joke. The only reason we haven't crashed is friction. It just takes time for a country to swirl down the bowl.

I'm so depressed about outsourcing I called the suicide hotline and got a call center in Pakistan. They got all excited and asked me if I could drive a truck.

Everything I write is my opinion and not to be considered proven fact. Nothing I write should be considered financial advice.

I'm a stone sculptor, that is one of my pieces titled: Journey, which is a mobius curve with spheres.

Actually, I thought it was quite tame compared to others ... lmao

Az, too funny. I did notice the mobius strip but got confused by the spheres and the whole flesh tone thing.

$70 BILLION toward bonus pools? For only 9 firms? SEVENTY BILLION !?!?!?!? OF MY MONEY?!?!?!

ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?!?!?!

If ANYTHING should get J6P outraged, maybe this will. While Joe is struggling to pay the bills and put food on the table, maybe he'll get righteously ****ED that part of his money went to pay $70 BILLION into a pool for bonuses at firms that helped CAUSE this damn mess.
