LeBron people can knock Kobe all they want, but that was funny. Nike made such a dumb move by confiscating the tape. It made it a big deal when it wasn’t one.
Gods, that article is one step away from black helicopters at dawn territory
Tell me about it. I read the Rolling Stone article a week ago, an then today the Goldman news breaks. It sure makes you wonder. From March-June, Goldman is said to have made $2 billion in profits.
Gods, Goldman Sachs got extremely lucky in this recent crisis…2 junior employees went to their bosses about 6 months before the meltdown with some research, and said “get out of the subprime market now.” Goldman listened, thus they were not nearly as exposed as most of the big investment banks, and so it’s no wonder that they’re already making money again.
Both employees got bonuses, one got 5 million, the other 15…small change for avoiding billions in liability.
Gods, I try to read things like that and laugh it off as conspiracy… but my gut always gets a horrible feeling that it is all too possible.
10 years ago… hell, 5 years ago, I would have laughed that Taibbi article off as a joke. Now? Based on the greed, conspiracy, and utter recklessness of financial companies and individual traders, I am apt to believe a good part of the Rolling Stone article.
It’s facts are probably skewed, but the overall premise does not seem off-kilter, in my mind.

Kobe may be the last person on earth that I would want to have a drink with… he’s the least interesting douchebag in the world.
