you know, I really like Heidi for some reason. Maybe it is just because she agrees with me, but I think it is because she keeps talking about Wall Street decision-makers as if they're practical thinkers, which makes her funny.

In my dictionary, the phrase "Wall Street Banker" is defined as 'one who is shortsighted, makes money by the boatload, and is occasionally delusional'.

No lesson has been learned. No lesson will be learned - unless bank executives are replaced by people like Heidi.

The blame is always about how our government failed in not rescuing Lehman. Why aren't the financial commentators talking about the blame that Lehman management deserves? The failure wasn't our government, it was Lehman.
