Ir Auksožmogus.

A lot of people used to think that Goldman Sachs ran the US economy. Now we know it does.

JAV bankas „Goldman Sachs“ sumažino JAV ekonomikos augimo prognozę.

Orų spėjikai prognozių nemažina ir nedidina, tik keičia - ne tik skaičiukus rašo, bet ir saulutes, debesėlius, lietutį, snaigeles paišo.

O bankininkai mūsų ūkio augimo prognozes ir mažina, ir didina, drąsiai.

Nes toks tvarka.

Pinigų valdytojų mums primesta.

O jų atsakomybės, šitų mūsų ūkio augimo prognozuotojų, mes neprašom.

Sinoptikus tai kartais pakeiksnojam.

O šituos?

„Goldman Sachs“ gali sau leisti mažinti pačių Jungtinių Amerikos Valstijų ekonomikos augimo prognozę.

Ir kodėl gi ne?

In February 2011, the Washington Examiner reported that Goldman Sachs was "the company from which Obama raised the most money in 2008" and that its " CEO Lloyd Blankfein has visited the White House 10 times. During 2008 Goldman Sachs received criticism for an apparent revolving door relationship, in which its employees and consultants have moved in and out of high level U.S. Government positions, creating the potential for conflicts of interest. Former Treasury Secretary Paulson was a former CEO of Goldman Sachs. Additional controversy attended the selection of former Goldman Sachs lobbyist Mark Patterson as chief of staff to Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner, despite President Barack Obama' s campaign promise that he would limit the influence of lobbyists in his administration.

In April 2009, there was controversy that Goldman Sachs had "puffed up" its Q1 earnings by creating a December " orphan month" into which it shifted large writedowns. In its first full quarter as a bank holding company, the firm reported a $780M net loss for the single month of December alongside Q1 net earnings of $1.81B (Jan–Mar). The accounting change to a calendar fiscal year, which created the stub month, was required when the firm converted to a bank holding company and declared in Item 5.03 of its Form 8-K U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filing of December 15, 2008.

Goldman Sachs expected in December 2008 to pay $14 million in taxes worldwide for 2008 compared with $6 billion the previous year, after making $2.3 billion profit and paying $10.9 billion in employee pay and benefits. The company’s effective tax rate dropped to 1% from 34.1% in 2007, due to tax credits and, according to Goldman Sachs, " changes in geographic earnings mix" thus reducing the company' s tax obligation. Many critics argue that the reduction in Goldman Sach' s tax rate was achieved by shifting its earnings to subsidiaries in low- or no-tax nations. Goldman Sachs had 28 such subsidiaries at the time, including 15 in the Cayman Islands. According to Representative Lloyd Doggett (D-TX), "with the right hand out begging for bailout money, the left is hiding it offshore."

Argi ne monai čia?

Man tai atrodo, kad niekas kitas, kaip monai.

Auksožmogaus monai.


Ir kitų ne ką prastesni.
