Stacy Summary: As we have said in our radio shows, Goldman basically took out an insurance policy on the US economy and her consumer/citizens and then had every incentive to burn the whole thing down to collect on the insurance money.
In addition, the Federal Reserve and the Treasury, by helping Goldman Sachs to profit from homeowner and investor losses, conceal their misrepresentations to shareholders, destroy insurers by stuffing them with toxic bonds that they marketed as AAA, and escape from the consequences of making a risky bet, committed a grave injustice and, very likely, financial crimes. Since the bailout, they have actively concealed their actions and mislead the public. Goldman, the Fed and the Treasury should be investigated for fraud, securities law violations and misappropriation of taxpayer funds. Based on what I have laid out here, I am confident that they will find ample evidence.

Stacy Summary: I’m sure this was a totally innocent lapse. UPDATE: I have added story about the single body that approves new drugs for NHS having the pricing power to get Spanish drug maker to reduce new cancer drug price by 50%. The article points out that this is the third such success this year. It seems that many ‘free market’ (though there aren’t any) people against health care reform, usually would endorse this sort of pricing power when it happens say with Tesco getting avocados or chicken from a farmer, but when it is a similar monopoly power negotiating down life saving drugs . . . it’s bad? Thoughts?
