Goldman's Latest Joke

You've got to be effing kidding me. Goldman Sachs is so sorry it made a mess of the economy and to prove how truly contrite they are, will show such largess as this:

A little more than a week after Goldman’s chairman and chief executive drew fire for saying the Wall Street giant was “doing God’s work,” the bank said Tuesday that it would spend $500 million — or about 3 percent of the $16.7 billion it has so far set aside to pay its employees this year — to help thousands of small businesses recover from the recession.

Do they honestly think that a paltry $500 million is going to make it all better and the "little people" or as they no doubt privately refer to us, "the easy marks" won't be mad at them anymore? Either they're really stupid, or they think we are.
