Charlie Gasparino Insults Lloyd Blankfein, Gives Suggestions

Finance World News Update by EQUITIES Magazine

Charlie Gasparino has a suggestion for Goldman Sachs: get rid of CEO Lloyd Blankfein.

 

Days after telling a newspaper reporter he was doing “God’s work” at Goldman Sachs, Blankfein caused an uproar when he apologized for the risks Goldman took last year.

 

Gasparino finished his anti-Blankfein rant with this quote: “For all these reasons I am recommending two things: Mr. Oracle should use his considerable clout to release taxpayers from their Goldman Sachs subsidy and make the firm a hedge fund or something different than a government protected "bank." Second, I think it's about time for Lloyd Blankfein to step down and resign as CEO of Goldman, and really start doing God's work by sparing the rest of us the stupidity of listening to his excuses.”
