Obama tells it as it is!
Top U.S. bank executives have been slammed as 'fat cats' by a very annoyed Barack Obama.
Wall Street executives are in for a scolding over bonuses when they meet with the U.S. president today.
Mr Obama complained about bonuses bankers are raking in on CBS '60 Minutes' news programme last night.
'I did not run for office to be helping out a bunch of fat cat bankers on Wall Street,' Mr Obama said
'What's really frustrating me right now is that you've got these same banks who benefited from taxpayer assistance who are fighting tooth and nail with their lobbyists up on Capitol Hill, fighting against financial regulatory control,' he added.
'The country did incredible things for the banking industry,' Mr Summers, director of the National Economic Council, told ABC's 'This Week' program. 'They need to recognize that they've got obligations to the country after all that's been done for them, and there is a lot more they can do.'
Spot on ...... kick them in the goolies!!
If the world reacts to these paracites like they should we can make it so uncomfortable that they will be happy just to get away without being strung up by lynch mobs ... won't be long before their country mansions are torched - greedy b4stards!!!!
