		<description>SG:  &quot;Of course their request will be denied. And for their own good. Mr. Obama has to protect the Cit-Group CEOs from the pitchforkers.&quot;

Perfectly stated.

So, we will see an early example of how socialism rips apart private businesses and turns productive enterprises into goose-stepping factories of mediocrity.

The handful of geniuses who mastered the trading discipline and made the billions that helped Citibank comply with Drooling Barney&#039;s orders to burn money will now leave the company, and go to another owned by foreigners.  The foreigners will collect the wealth this country is throwing away.  

But the achievers will have been punished and America&#039;s losers, including The Moron, will have the satisfaction of seeing them be paid like peasants......and Obamaland will be singing about its revenge.</description>

		<description>&quot;Phibro has been the source of hundreds of millions of dollars in profits for the bank, and has paid out hefty compensation, including a roughly $100 million windfall last year for the unit’s leader, Andrew Hall.&quot;

Of course it begs repeating, if the man is in the business of energy trading at the behest of his employer philbro, then a bonus or pay from philbro is not a windfall, but compensation duly earned.  Especially considering he has done a &quot;legendary&quot; job.</description>
