> Yeah, but the people that were doing this KNEW that they were running the companies into the ground. They knew they were building up a bubble that would eventually burst. And they knew that when it did everyone would go bankrupt. But of course the CEO’s will get to keep all their money, and get sweet severance packages, and retire to where the fuck ever and everyone else will be totally fucked. This is Enron x 1000000

But why should I have to pay for some fuck driving a company into a ground over greed? And I definitely shouldn’t have to pay for a retard going out and getting a 250k ARM mortgage. Not my fault you took something that was too good to be true. Man up and take it on the chin like the working man. Just because you are financially irresponsible / clueless doesn’t excuse you from paying for your mistakes.
