The first thing you need to know about Goldman Sachs is that it's everywhere. The world's most powerful investment bank is a great vampire squid wrapped around the face of humanity, relentlessly jamming its blood funnel into anything that smells like money.

Wall Street Bubble Mafia" — investment bank Goldman Sachs.
The piece has generated controversy, with Goldman Sachs firing back
that Taibbi's piece is "an hysterical compilation of conspiracy
theories" and a spokesman adding, "We reject the assertion that we
are inflators of bubbles and profiteers in busts, and we are
painfully conscious of the importance in being a force for good."
Taibbi shot back: "Goldman has its alumni pushing its views from
the pulpit of the U.S. Treasury, the NYSE, the World Bank, and
numerous other important posts; it also has former players fronting
major TV shows. They have the ear of the president if they want
it." Here, now, are excerpts from Matt Taibbi's piece and video of
Taibbi exploring the key issues.</EM></P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/story/28816321/the_great_american_bubble_machine/print"><P><STRONG>Matt Taibbi On Goldman Sachs' Big Scam</STRONG></P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/story/28816321/the_great_american_bubble_machine/print"><div align="center"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/www.rollingstone.com/img/E42EF5E5-9122-4F58-B5C3-095A92E492E1" alt="" /></div></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/4E239CFF-FFDB-4B79-AB12-DB2577C38ABA/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
