Pearlstein: Wall St. Leadership "Non-Existent"

[Richardgwm]

Begin erecting the guillotines on Wall Street.

by the way.. this guy has a point.

[smilingseal]

these tv bozos talk about the 'market" as if it is someone with "feelings" like:

"not confident", 'sad", "sinical"...

Like iif it really reacts minute by minute about what someone says.

it shows you how stupid news tv has become.

Serious financial advisors will tell you to not watch TV . Rather know the companies and products you invest in.....NOT the latest political nonsense.

You really have to know where your money is. Bottom line, dont let others play with your money.

[Magurufukuru]

Wall Street doesn't have leadership, it never has. They're just money-obsessed sociopaths

[Dllshockk]

How are yall enjoying socialism?

[DarkerDivinity]

We'll, during the 8 years with bush I wasnt really liking socialism, and still don't. Hopefully Obama can clean up the mess Bush and his degenerate socialist and sociopathic friends created.

[CYLONEJACK]

So far im fine with it. Im making a shitload of money buying tons of cheap property and renting them out to people who cant afford home loans. 800$ for two bedrooms and a bath is a steal for most, and i feel good cause its low income housing for people that need it.

[smilingseal]

Good for you that have the cash handy , or a bank to lend you the money.I cant even get a call back from Bank of America, to raise my equity loan.

[rogulet666]

Gietner, someone is actually paying attention to the 1st bail-out . Where is Rush on this?

[BAILOUTMONEY]

YOUR INVITED - to join my experimental protest in support of Money To The People....answer one simple question: "How would you spend $297,000 dollars?" email your video responses or uplad them to youtube so I can add them to my favorites.

The Gov is giving out this money w/o knowing how it will spend or IF it will work...lets tell em how we would spend it to show if WE got the money THIS CRAZY IDEA WOULD WORK AND FIX THE ECONOMY!!!

[SevenSixTwoNato]

Hell, they were popping champagne as soon as the bailouts were proposed. I'd be happy, too, if my poor business practices were to be passed off to the taxpayers.

[facelesshorseman]

Finally! Someone points out that all these billion dollar babies haven't said SHIT about their role in this thing. Do they let their staff mumble inanities at board meetings in response to direct questions? These "stars" of WallStreet might as well be middle managers at a rendering plant for all the business genius and leadership they've shown.

[voyeurdug]

Would be happy to see - but don't anticipate soon - (like before I die), the Federal and state(s)' Treasury websites becoming simple, streamlined, user-friendly, integrated with one another, and tied in with taxing authorities. They COULD mobilize myriad, stagnant, "little money" amounts in savings accounts of less-financially-successful baby-boomers to fund recovery with non-inflationary tax advantaged cash investments in government debt.

But won't be holding my breath.
