We had a great cause in WWII which served to reunite the republic and demand unity. Happily, we are not on the brink of global conflict (or so it would seem — fingers crossed), but sadly, there is nothing now available to reunite all of us, rich and poor alike to a common cause. Ergo, collapse of the republic is in the wind. Not a day goes by when I don’t think of our position and what a Russian pundit said a couple of years ago — within five years, America will become four separate countries (look at what Illinios has just announced, an increase in state income tax by an unbelievable 67% — other states will follow — sadly, Tucson may not be an aberration before too long as more and more citizens at the middle and bottom are driven to and beyond the brink). Plutach still holds, and G&S still doesn’t get it.Indian T.v Serialsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5724181159639068489.post-44917738923496388282011-01-14T08:31:48.077-05:002011-01-14T08:31:48.077-05:00Maybe someone could forward this guys stuff to the...Maybe someone could forward this guys stuff to the SEC!<br /><br /><br /> Goldman reveals fresh crisis losses and Goldman’s republished results present a new picture<br /><br />Goldman Sachs has revealed details of about $5bn in investment losses suffered during the crisis for the first time this week, in a move that will deepen the debate over companies’ financial disclosures. The figures, issued as part of internal reforms aimed at silencing Goldman’s critics, show that the bank suffered $13.5bn in losses from “investing and lending” with its own funds in 2008. But Goldman’s regulatory filings and its executives’ comments to investors at the time pointed to about $8.5bn of losses arising from its investments in debt and equity, as markets were rocked by the turmoil. <br /><br /> Contrary to popular belief, it does not appear that Goldman is a superior risk manager as compared to the rest of the Street. They may<br />the same mistakes and had to accept the same bailouts. They are apparently well connected though, because they have one of the riskiest<br />balance sheet compositions around yet managed to get themselves insured and protected by the FDIC like a real bank. This bank’s portfolio looked quite scary at the height of the bubble.<br /><br />http://www.zerohedge.com/article/financial-times-vindicates-boombustblog’s-stance-goldman-sachs-–-once-againAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5724181159639068489.post-20163807287551348452011-01-13T15:22:31.213-05:002011-01-13T15:22:31.213-05:00I like those visuals, Anonymous #1!!I like those visuals, Anonymous #1!!JRnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5724181159639068489.post-70786508496108948352011-01-13T15:04:23.202-05:002011-01-13T15:04:23.202-05:00ViSuaLiZiNG The SQuiD BuSiNeSS PRiNCiPLeS
