4. Wall Street
always makes money on behalf of human misery. It's in their creed and DNA.

You need to see "Inside Job" which I just saw because a neighbor was generous enough to loan it to me. After viewing this documentary most rational people could come to the conclusion that these bastards are actually responsible for destroying the USA.....through their bribing of politicians, corrupting morals of society, creating incentives for outsourcing, distorting the real GDP with harmful fabricated financial products, money laundering, cooking books, sucking in money from pension funds and average Americans, and basically creating and promoting a culture of greed in the people that they then manipulate to their advantage.

The article "What Good is Wall Street" pretty much covers it. As a nation we'd be better off without these corrupt capital markets and the wheeler dealers that run them.
