Specs Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Couldn;t make it past one of the first paragraphs"..The bank had already set aside a tidy $16.2 billion for salaries and bonuses — meaning that Goldman employees were each set to take home an average of $498,246, a number roughly commensurate with what they received during the bubble years...."Let me know how it turns out.On another justice note, Mr Geoffrey Skilling (ex Enron) has a Supreme Court hearing coming soon to see about a new trial, based on the argument that he didn't get a fair trial - they had to excuse to too many potential houston jurors because of local biases against Mr Skilling. Hmmmm? Seems to me that if you're entitled to a jury of your peers, then doesn't that mean that your peers are then entitled to a case against you? Isn't that what justice is all about? Is it their fault you robbed them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
