why I should give a shit about Lehman. All stock brokers do is set up the tables for legalized gambling. There are plenty of assclowns running around out there to sell us worthless pieces of paper (fuck, they don't even do that anymore, at least you could wipe your ass with a paper share of Enron...), why should I care about this particular set of money grubbers? They always vote against us, and they don't give a goddam about where they're 'investing' people's money, it could be for poison or the war machine, it's all the same to them as long as they make their big fat commission.
Nope, my give-a-damn is plumb busted!
