why Wall Street is evil

netrox · 10-20-2009, 07:38 PM

amazing how hardcore capitalists don't see anything wrong with this:

"It may be hard to believe but there was a time, almost 25 years ago, when Wall Street and Main Street weren't so far apart -- at least when it came to the average worker's salary and the average financial industry employee's annual bonus.
Back in 1985, the average annual salary for all workers across the country was actually a bit higher than the average bonus ($19,000 to $13,970). (Note: these numbers are not adjusted for inflation)
How times have changed - while the average bonus soared almost 14 times higher (by 2006), the average salary has essentially been stagnant sine the mid-1980s."

And they are often the ones that whine for the good old days!

You have NO idea how people on Wall Street exploits you.

I've done the stuff they've done. It's just unreal. Imagine - You making 10% gain on 25k every 15 minutes.

It's possible. Again, I've done it before.
