Blankfein, who owns $210 million worth of Goldman Sachs stock, defended his suggestions by claiming that “Social Security wasn’t devised to be a system that supported you for a 30-year retirement after a 25-year career.” …. http://www.allgov.com

  • Best way to get back at these dickheads is to not invest with anyone or anything to do with them and most important change from banks to credit unions……this will break thier backs.

    • Too late now.
      They have won already.
      They are just holding the plug for a little longer.
      Credit Unions will not save us.
