So government control is making the banks have less options.

So why did they accept tax payer money, when they apparently don't need it....given they are able to pay it back so soon?

God i hate investment bankers.

Goldman Sachs is one of the banks/families that run the world.  Obama and the US government doesn't tell them what they can pay their lackys.  Money is how they control people and they will never allow the US to take that away from them.

Damn straight!

Funny thing is, they can't pay the money back - because they don't have it. So they'll have to put up with government regulations for a while.

..Shouldn't any government help qualify as exceptional assistance? I'll be interested to see whether other less than bankrupt firms follow Goldman's lead.

I know you be joking about that, but I am not.

I would happily shoot those pukes in the head. All of them.

One of my credit cards I can't pay is a Wamu card. The cunt on the phone yesterday was saying I was being financially irreasponcible, I said " isn't that the pot calling the kettle black?"

I also said I would NEVER repay any CC money to a bank that has received tax money. They can suck me.

Your scenario in this case is a perfect example of the tax payer being fucked on both ends... these swines are spit roasting us while dishing out bonuses amongst themselves.

Which explains the state the world is in.

People see failed banks rewarded with billions. Collectively, we can see that the people on top are inept, corrupt or just plain evil. Generally, the more ignorant a politician seems to us little people, the more they seem to be rewarded with power.

Now our savior obama has shown that tax dodging politicians get high appointments and he claims that only government can solve this problem that was created by politicians.

The economic mess is partly a massive no confidence vote in the system, the future and those in charge.

I have wondered if this engineered crash is something the government wanted; a tool to break our ties with the banking dynasties.

But then they gave the banks billions, so unless the give away is a method of destroying world currencies so that the central banks lose their grip, it doesn't seem that way.

So far, this just seems like a massive power grab by the government.

Incorrect.
Its something the banks wanted, its how they work.
Its a massive money grab by the banks.

Goldmans Sachs
They wanted the bailout money, then realised there were strings, like they can't loot it all.

If you take the money, you gotta pay it back.

The shame here is that they have the option not to pay it back.

Yeah, we know who the government really works for.
