Goldfellas (Goodfellas spoof of Goldman Sachs)

Comedian Matt Ritter creates a hilarious spoof of "Goodfellas" based on Goldman Sachs outrageous compensation and Wall Street excess. Lloyd Blankfein, Goldman's CEO, sent out a memo recently telling his top employees not to buy anything flashy with their bonuses. This a parody of the scene after the heist where De Niro tells his mob guys the same thing! Is Goldman stealing from the American public? Watch this video and decide for yourself.

Great, except Geithner is in on it too!

Sadly, the real Goodfellas had more ethics than Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan, Jamie Dimon, Ben Bernanke, the Fed.

@mphello Actually, this scene confirms my point.

Goldman Sachs execs, JP Morgan executives, Bank of American execs show ZERO restraint about flaunting the illegal money they had stolen from the taxpayer.

@mphello Amen! If the banksters had understood what the Goodfellas understood, they wouldn't have continued to pay out those fat bonuses right after the heist, and their PR would have been a lot better.

Thumbs up if you thumbed up this video before watching merely because of the title!
