Our overlords at Goldman Sachs: "Tolerate the inequality"
Goldman Sachs Vice Chairman Lord Griffiths tells us plebes to sit down and shut up about the billions and billions in bonuses bankers in New York and London are receiving soon after massive public bailouts of their failed banks:
Lord Griffiths, vice-chairman of Goldman Sachs International and a former adviser to Margaret Thatcher, said banks should not be ashamed of rewarding their staff.
Speaking to an audience at St Paul’s Cathedral in London about morality in the marketplace last night, Griffiths said the British public should “tolerate the inequality as a way to achieve greater prosperity for all”.
Decades after Reagan’s “trickle-down” bulls—t — which was patently false at the time and has been thoroughly discredited by subsequent events — elites are still feeding us the same crap. Do they really think we’re THAT stupid?
