As far as the movie business, those Radicals will not get sympathy, or ticket money from me. As far as Goldman, they've been playing footsie with their buddy, Obama for a long time now.
As far as hedge funds, if they are closely monitored they're a good source of investment for high risk takers, but they need to be monitored daily on site for standard practices and compliance.
As for Sean Penn, Tina Fey, Alec Baldwin, Streisand, Jane Fonda, John C. Reilly, Matt Damon, Will Ferrell, Joy Behar, Susan Sarandon, Tim Robbins, Spielberg, Rosie O'Donnell, Ben Affleck, Oliver Stone, Robert Redford, George Clooney, Gloria Estephan, Cheryl Crow, The Jonas Brothers, and Michael Moore: Tough!
Wait for actors and actresses to become avitars only. Lots of fewer Hollywood elitists.
All of the actors you mentioned, are pathetically Liberal/Democrat/Socialist/and/or Marxist leaning radicals. Like yourself, they will NEVER gain a dime from me either!
Several days ago I warned about the progs having taken over the environmental groups. Well here's the first step in taking down coal. This is being done to push the inefficient, ineffective, and high cost green industries.

goldman sachs is the most evil company in the world
F the movie business. Read a book. Would it kill ya?
You said it JacksonPearson! and that is only a partial list of Socialists. There are many more listed on line. They've signed into the White House for the last two years. It's public record. The traitors.
I don't see them bailing out California while it supports it's Socialist Society, and supports Illegal Aliens and the chronically Unemployed who are roller skating in Venice Cal. to pick up their Welfare & Unemployment checks!
The Union Bosses and Drug Cartels are being paid well though. Hey Matt Damon, Susan Sarandon, Tina Fey, or any socialist movie star, open your check books and write Jerry Brown a check and fix the desperate economy in Socialist California. Let's not hold our breath JacksonPearson!
Jerry Brown…Ugh! California is in for with this cartoon character.
Maybe Linda Ronstadt could be the guest star for a benefit to raise money to pay down their debt! Ahh. what the hell, just go to the feds and we can all pay for these smucks that can't manage a budget.
Anybody know if the Tea Party are going to hold true to their promises of no more taxpayer funded welfare for super rich corporations, to include all the super rich corporations that fund the GOP and Blue Dogs campaigns?
Yup they got 10 billion in GOP and Blue Dog taxpayer funded welfare and only paid one percent of their taxes.

Yeah, It's too bad that Jerry would be in charge of the communist hollywood celebrities money. No fear, the Hollywood celebrities only want to criticize we Tea Party type Constitutionalists. They have no intention of saving California. ……………and ………..IF they did …………..>
It would only be with the stipulation that they be allowed to all sing a group song to be sure that they are praised and adored and TELEVISED! God forbid that they be altruistic and just write a freaking check to save the State that they leech off of!
You are right about Goldman. They played their games for their own gain before Obama, and now they play their games WITH Obama and all the Govt. Agencies and hundreds of Regulations. It's colusion in it's highest form!
Doesn't it all make you sick, that we are victims of these socialists?
And is there anyone on earth who doesn't know that Mayor Michael Bloomberg, NY is starting up businesses in the Middle East?! He signed off on the Victory Mosque at Ground Zero! and he's still helping the Imams, against the screaming protests of the New York and American people! Remove him from office! I wonder how many Billions or Millions have transpired between Bloomberg and the Imams.
Bloomberg, NY, is backed by Chuck Schumer, Gillebrand and all the NY Dems. Disgusting. Where are the ethics?
