No offense and I don't know your background or association with Goldmans but this sounds like a kneejerk reaction to populist sentiment.

The existence of practices that goes on at Goldmans and every other IB is a symptom of a deeper underlying problem. You really have to question the foundations of a system that has enabled such institutions to come into play.

Totally agree with you - I have followed the frauds and underlying issues in our system for a very long time.

I am not some newly enraged random who just saw Inside Job and got upset -- I have been actively using my skills of observation and discernment on the presented reality that is 'the system' for a long time and summarily disgusted/disheartened.
