Why Goldman's Bonuses Matter

What people get paid is best left to the marketplace.But Goldman Sachs is different because it was propped up with our money. Not the money they took directly from the government and paid back. The money that AIG gave them that really came from the taxpayer. Goldman Sachs being proud of their performance this year is like the Harlem Globetrotters bragging that they went undefeated. It's not really a normal competition.
