    Viewer 38 here I've not fully read the article yet but I agree with your sentiments Rip Off Britain exists because there are too many mugs in this country willing to roll over and be trampled on.

    These are the samen people that say government should bot interfere in the 'free market'. It was a different tune when they needed the bail out.

    As the the threats to leave the country if they don't get a bonus. Where are they all going to go? Surely there are not that many jobs available, because if there are I want one (just for a year and then I can retire!)

    They are empty threats, let them go!

    Surely if you get in debt buy spending to much money which you havent got...then you are liable to pay it back.....so before Brown leaves office he should pay of the deficit after all he spent the money which he diddnt have...

    Well, what COULD the employees possibly expect from a CEO who is 'Blankfein' by name ... and "Bankfiend" by nature ... Gold, man? - or *Sac(h)kings? ...

    my favorite" We made a sh*tload of money last year because we're so amazing at our jobs, so f** all those people who want us to reduce our bonuses."

    "a pair of giant, nuclear-powered testicles. There were rumors that Dr. Ballsachs, bowing to political pressure, might be forced to scale the number back."
    thank you for posting.
    It's time to kick ass and chew bubble gum. And I'm all out of gum.
