Triply ironic that these sound minds (whose jobs did NOT depend on produce or perish) would have developed, then rejected, synthetic mortgage structures; developed, then rejected SIVs and saw the illogic of 200 billion of anything (even AAA CDOs on their balance sheet)--AIG be (and most certainly is) damned.
So how much of our out-of-control half-decade to we put at the feet of "healthy competition?" Why make one dragon movie when we can make five? That's how hollywood does it. _________________ Today is the Tomorrow you worried about Yesterday! |
