Like, check out the way some of these elites on Wall Street talk. Don’t they sound a little bit, like, teenagers or whatever?
A former member of the Goldman Sachs management committee was not so sure. �Don�t you think, out of 10 million data points, there will be 500 unbelievably screwy examples? It�s a little bit so what,� he said on Tuesday. �I don�t get it. It doesn�t feel like this is fraud. Maybe there is sloppiness, but at the end of the day, people took out mortgages they can�t pay back. Now I worry that if anything, the government is making something that is just a clerical error into something that would be nefarious or whatever.��It seems a lot about it is, like, notaries,� the Goldman source said. �I didn�t know anyone even focused on what a notary did! It almost struck me as some kind of anachronism that must have had some value in the past�which I don�t understand.�
Dude, like who pays attention to what notaries do, anyway? Isn�t that totally old or something? Who cares about what people used to do in the past? I don�t get it.
We aren�t ruled by our superiors. We�re ruled by spoiled teenagers, greedy little ignoramuses who are morally undeveloped and have childishly narrow mentalities. The fact that they use slick terms like �data point� or �compensation-to-revenue ratio� isn�t much different from the fact that a seven-year old can download songs onto an iPod or master a video game. Here�s a couple of them throwing around a few ideas about how to solve the mortgage-fraud crisis:
�The question to me is not do you foreclose or do you not foreclose. The question is when and with what philosophy you foreclose,� the man on the bank restructuring team said. �If you want to reduce the amount of leveraged homeowners you have, you need to ultimately kick them out of their homes.� A colleague walked up: His recommendation was to burn houses. It would lower the supply.
Kick them into the street and burn their houses down. That would be so totally awesome!
We�ve peacefully given power to an obscenely rich uber-class of rotten kids whose thoughts and morals are no more sophisticated, or evolved, than that.
If it wasn�t so tragic, it would just be fuckin� embarrassing.

Or whatever.
Anyone have the Goldman source's home address? Maybe we could burn a 10-foot-tall dollar sign on his lawn, as a gentle warning.
