While the
financial Mafia, lead by the likes of Goldman Sachs etc. continue
with their slash and burn of the living standards of all the ordinary
people across Europe, they have no qualms whatsoever in gorging
themselves on the fruits of their plunder. It is not done
surreptitiously, no it is done quite blatantly, their arrogance makes
them feel they are entitled to such stratospheric payments.
It's hard being a banker, I have to make some tough decisions.
Take Mr
Lloyd Blankfein, head of Goldman Sachs, while you and I are
suffering from a wage freeze or wage cut, this hard working gentleman
received, for his 2011 annual pay, an increase of 14.5% taking his
reward for a hard years work to the princely sum of $16.2million.
This is approximately £10.3million a payment that makes up his
salary, bonuses, long term share rewards and perks. You can rest
assured that every penny/cent of that was gleaned from the “austerity
cuts” and “deficit reduction” being imposed on the rest of us.
Well, that's capitalism for you.
