Talk:Goldman Sachs
[edit] World Food Crisis
I created this page a few days ago because Goldman Sachs was referenced by a lot of articles, and I keep seeing and hearing about it everywhere. "Blah blah blah, it's all Goldman Sachs, it's Them and not Any Other Investment Bank, nope, the only one I can name! Also something something Rothschilds". Anyway, someone added that Goldman was responsible for the 2008 world food crisis, which I found both interesting and suspicious. A single firm jacking up the price of a HUUUGE sector of the economy like all of food seems a bit far fetched. So I did a bit of research, "research" being defined as "reading wikipedia", and found quite a few counter-sources to this claim. So I added one to the GS and the world food crisis article. Later, I noticed the sources and counter-claims were removed.
Is this because we are absolutely certain GS was the evil mastermind of the rising food prices and not, you know, skyrocketing oil prices and the Dollar and Euro at risk of turning into toilet paper? CorruptUser (talk) 00:24, 29 January 2015 (UTC)
[edit] Conspiracies
The conspiracy theories don't just use GS as a proxy for racism. They have their own unique spins that should be addressed.
This includes things like
- Fed obsession, where Goldman Sachs is a direct feeder to the fed, and intentionally tries to place its employees on the federal reserve board.
- Secret Harvard clubs that determines who can be an employee of GS
- Economic index manipulation(okay that one actually happened, but a list with two items seemed short). Ikanreed (talk) 15:00, 23 January 2015 (UTC)
