| The Federal Reserve has surprised everyone by recording it's largest profit ever in 2009, a whopping 45 billion dollars (better, according to WaPo, than Goldman Sachs, Bank of America, and JP Morgan combined). The money will be returned to the Treasury. Give Ben Bernanke a big bonus, says the Wall Street Journal, oblivious to the fact that the Fed Chairman isn't allowed to receive a big bonus. It's just that the WSJ always wants everyone in the financial world to get a big bonus, and how tacky does it look to slight the CEO of America's bank? |

Huh. I could get on just fine without money if everybody else wasn't so f'n crazy about it.

ReplyDeleteBut what's a little more graft between friends, right?
