This made me shit my pants in anger:

Last week, White House officials quietly approached leading financial firms seeking formal letters of support for a Congressional overhaul of financial regulations. One Wall Street powerhouse was left off the list: Goldman Sachs.

Given the government’s lawsuit against Goldman, “the message,” said a financial industry executive involved in the discussions about the White House solicitation, “was that Goldman’s opinion doesn’t matter and that it would be negative if Goldman was supportive of what we were doing.”

Can you imagine White House officials approaching rapists seeking formal letters of support for tougher rape laws? What about approaching murders seeking formal letters of support for tougher murder laws? Or approaching drug users seeking formal letters of support for tougher drug laws?

Fuck no.

Then why the hell does our government feel the need to ask Wall Street for their permission to pass tougher financial laws?

Oh, I see. It all makes sense now.
