From a friend today on Facebook, on the banks

His post: 

I would like to congratulate the banking industry for a job well done!



Now we have all the clowns in Washington in the same car. They want to reward you on putting 1 in 5 Americans on unemployment. Taking the whole global economy to it's k...nees. Your unbridled greed in the commodity markets have caused many a parent worldwide to worry on how they can fed their children. Playing with grain futures that is so you after all. Those end of year bonuses do look good, don't they. After all you do have to spend more time in the Hampton's, too get away from all the slums in the city.


Taking peoples nest eggs and a making an omelet out of them.


Now they want to give you total control of the housing market. So here's your reward Fannie-Mae and Freddie-Mac. Come on how can you mess up the housing sector.


Good job bankers keep up your contempt of those around you and I hope that someday not to repay you for your actions.

My response:
 
AND they're still fighting to be totally, completely and utterly unregulated, as they are right this moment---and they have the Republicans fighting for them so it doesn't happen!! What a great bunch of people!
