Jim in Anchorage Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 You enjoy my predictability and what is more predictable than me taking a shot at the vile moocher state of Alaska. I hate to encourage your odd and unusual obsession with Alaska , but I notice you never mention what liberal approved state you live in. Also getting back to what you refuse to address back up your claim Washington is run by Wall street.

No meaningful reforms after the financial crisis, 4billion+ lobbying/campaign finance by the FIRE sector and my Kenyon socialist picking Summers, Geithner, and Bernanke for his teams- If I vote for a socialist I want a socialist not a Wall Street flunky corporate puppet.
GG Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 No meaningful reforms after the financial crisis,... I'm sure that you know every single rule and regulation that Dodd Frank has spawned, Elizabeth Warren's disaster agency, the Volcker Rule, and 20% job losses in financial services employment since 2008. But other than that, nothing has changed. Idiot.
Keukasmallies Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 Heard a great comment on the news this evening--Obama confronting Putin is like the PTA confronting the KGB!

Jim in Anchorage Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 Removing 20% of the Tapeworm may seem harsh to the Tapeworm but is hardly sufficient for the patient's recovery. So total destruction of the financial service industry is necessary?
....lybob Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 So total destruction of the financial service industry is necessary? I just want to shrink it down to the size where we can drown it in thebathtub.

Yes, I'm sure that your solution is airing somewhere on Youtube as we speak. BTW, funny how we never get an answer from you when asked exactly how you would fix the evil finance industry. No wonder you like Obama. It's far easier to pontificate clueless ideas than to implement something that works.

GG Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 so speaks the Tapeworm Aw, YouTube boy has no answers.
3rdnlng Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 so speaks the Tapeworm Do your comments ever have substance? I bet you won't dare to answer. Cheap ass.
B-Man Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 (edited) ABC News RUSSIA LAUGHS AT OBAMA 'SANCTIONS'; CALLS HIM 'PRANKSTER' MOSCOW – Russia’s deputy prime minister laughed off President Obama’s sanction against him today asking “Comrade @BarackObama” if “some prankster” came up with the list. The Obama administration hit 11 Russian and Ukrainian officials with sanctions today as punishment for Russia’s support of Crimea’s referendum. Among them: aides to President Vladimir Putin, a top government official, senior lawmakers, Crimean officials, the ousted president of Ukraine, and a Ukrainian politician and businessman allegedly tied to violence against protesters in Kiev. It remains to be seen whether the sanctions will dissuade Russia from annexing Crimea, but one an early clue that they will not be effective came just hours later when President Putin signed a decree recognizing Crimea as an independent state, perhaps an early step towards annexation. The 1930s are calling Commentators with a cruel memory have recalled the moment from one of the 2012 presidential debates when President Obama cited Mitt Romney’s warning about the growing threat from Russia and dismissed it with a superficially sophisticated remark: “The 1980s are now calling to ask for their foreign policy back.” When I hear President Obama threatening to impose consequences on Vladimir Putin et al., or imposing them, as he did today, I think: “The 1930s are now calling to ask for their piece of paper back.” The piece of paper would be the one Obama carries in his pocket whenever he meets with a tyrant. Neville Chamberlain waved it upon his return to London from Munich in 1938, declaring that it represented “peace for our time.” “Our time” was roughly ten months. Having sized up Obama and his Team of Nitwits, Putin won’t even give them a fig leaf. Why bother? Putin is to Obama what Samuel Johnson was to James Boswell and Bishop Berkeley. He is a walking refutation of Obama’s fantasy world of the “international community” and “smart power.” http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2014/03/the-1930s-are-calling.php Edited March 18, 2014 by B-Man
Chef Jim Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 I just want to shrink it down to the size where we can drown it in the bathtub. Describe to us what the financial services industry does.
meazza Posted March 18, 2014 Author Posted March 18, 2014 so speaks the Tapeworm I'll go tell all those people I know who work in finance: 1) Back office people who book trades 2) IT 3) Risk how you feel about their jobs. Idiot. Describe to us what the financial services industry does. It's not even financial services. It's such a small part of actual finance. Most of the people who actually have a problem with finance don't realize how many people who depend on this sector to earn their living or to manage their pensions. They just look at a few wall street traders because they watch lefty wall street movies and read Matt Taibi

I don't shuffle money around, I work in data management. Stop being clue less you !@#$ing asshat. They're already here, and are providing a lot of value to the whole industry, you simpleton. Marx would be very proud that there are still morons who blame market makers any time something goes wrong. God knows if the critics knew how many people are employed from Montreal to China only when it comes to data.
