THE CONSCIENCE OF A BANKER (WHO ASKED NOT TO BE IDENTIFIED)

“I was a Goldman megabanker
Who moved from Goldman Sachs to Chase
But this engendered so much rancor
I feel that I must state my case:
It really shocked the whole profession
That Goldman started this recession
Then asked the feds to go our bail
By claiming, ‘We’re too big to fail.’
Well… true enough but that’s no reason
To land us in the blogs’ tabloids
As preternatural hemorrhoids.
My conscience thinks of this treason;
And so I moved, with no regrets,
Where I now trade in national debts.”
