		<description>If Mr Hall wants the profits, he&#039;s welcome to borrow against his own assets and run the trading desk as a private enterprise on his own.  He can keep all of the gains, shoulder all of the risk, and suffer any losses, margin calls, or forced liquidations.  If he wants to gamble with my tax dollars, he gets to play by my government&#039;s rules.  No one is forcing him to play with Citigroup&#039;s borrowed money.

The reason Mr Hall won&#039;t do this is that he wants the profits, but not the liability, which is the achilles heel of our banking system today.  You can&#039;t cry socialism when it was never written into the Constitution that you right to profit off of speculative dividends won with tax dollars- without any possibility of financial liability in the event of a loss.</description>

		<description>A piece of advice I wish I had paid more attention to, earlier, is, ...&quot;When you have $10,000 in the Bank, you don&#039;t have to take shit from anyone&quot;.

Mr. Hall is in a far better position than the one it was suggested I work toward.

Here is the bottom line : If Hall leaves Citibank, my money follows him. It is certain he knows that. And for the simplest of reasons. Anyone who will give me $5 out of every six HE earns... can work for me anytime.

It is understandable that Politicians may not think this cool, but if you will please notice : Politics is not business. Business is not politics. And when you mix them, Freedom becomes very rare.

The forced renegotiation of Mr. Halls CONTRACT (!!!!!!!!!!!) is one of those events that compare to the Camels nose in the tent or the Romans crossing the Rubicon. It bodes BIG CHANGE. Your choice is either say, &quot;None of that, Thank you!&quot; or you can wait for the BIG CHANGE.

Just how much authority does a guvment have? The authority to unilaterally redefine a contract? Just like a treaty with a tribe of ...should I continue?</description>

		<description>My wife’s take on the Andrew Hall controversy. “He made the company $600 million last year and paid him $100 million. I wish I could gets $6 worth of value for every $1 I pay those VOE students I hire to come in after school and on weekends.”</description>
