Wall Street Class Warfare Email circulating

Quote: "We are Wall Street. It's our job to make money. Whether it's a commodity, stock, bond, or some hypothetical piece of fake paper, it doesn't matter. We would trade baseball cards if it were profitable. I didn't hear America complaining when the market was roaring to 14,000 and everyone's 401k doubled every 3 years. Just like gambling, its not a problem until you lose. I've never heard of anyone going to Gamblers Anonymous because they won too much in Vegas..."

2. It is scary that some believe they should sell crap to their clients.

And they think the more money at stake the less they have to be upfront and honest about because the other guy has enough money to know better.

A society that says you do whatever you can to make money regardless of laws or ethics is a society that is ready to crash. We have to get people to understand that no matter your circumstances, even if you need the money, you have an obligation to follow the laws AND do what is right.

6. I loved that sign when I saw it in The Progressive one day.

It made my day just seeing that.
