While Goldman Sachs was betting that our economy would tank (and helping it sink, too), the regulators were watching porn. According to the article, "More than half of the workers made between $99,000 and $223,000." For watching porn.

Party on!

Any good shyster lawyer would say that the economic depression caused emotional depression in the employees and that was the reason for the need for pornography....

Let's just forgive and forget. Party on!
