No idea where you'd find that data, but even just the balance sheet assets of all public companies will be a huge number. That doesn't even count all private real estate, etc.

Job creators have to take risks sometimes. That's what makes capitalism work.

The banks were forced to accept the bailout just as they were forced to give mortgages to blacks and hispanics. The job creators get shitted on by our government. Sometimes at night I say a prayer for them while I read my favorite passage from the Bible (Matthew 5:5): Blessed are the job creators; for they shall inherit the earth.

brother, you're a fucking moron. last quarter, BoA, GS, etc, made money trading on every day except for 1-2. think about that. they have a biz where they make money every day. the only way such a business can function over the long term is if there are also catastrophic losses every 5-10 years. its fundamentally corrupt. they think they're masters of the universe for making a consistent daily return, but thats only made possible by the massive losses they expose themselves too if things dont go as expected.
