&lt;p&gt;Matt Taibbi is back, and this time his piece is called &quot;The People vs. Goldman Sachs,&quot; which builds a case (upon the one recently built by Congress) for why Goldman and its execs should fry for its sins (including its alleged lies about its &quot;big short&quot;) that helped cause the great financial crisis of 2008 and 2009.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;margin: 4px 10px; float: left;&quot; title=&quot;great oz&quot; src=&quot;http://www.guysnation.com/wp-content/uploads//2011/02/wizardofoz13.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;wizard of oz&quot; width=&quot;350&quot; height=&quot;196&quot;&gt;Although, at a glance, I didn&#39;t see any vampire squid-like pullquotes from this latest Taibbi &lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;article on Lloyd and the boys, this Taibbi-penned description of Goldman might stick for a bit: &quot;The great and powerful Oz of Wall Street.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Which, according to the &lt;em&gt;Rolling Stone&lt;/em&gt; journalist as well as to the Michigan Senator Carl Levin (who chaired the Senate Subcommittee on Investigations, which recently released a 650-page report entitled &lt;em&gt;Wall Street and the Financial Crisis: Anatomy of a Financial Collapse&lt;/em&gt;), didn&#39;t exactly get away with murder but did get away with stealing &quot;more money than most people can rationally conceive of, from their own customers, in a few blinks of an eye.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And so, if what Taibbi writes is true (or even partially true), perhaps it&#39;s time the great Oz of the Street reaches into its own bag of tricks and gives itself a heart.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Rolling Stone: The People vs. Goldman Sachs)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Related: Carl Levin Wants To Cut Off Lloyd Blankfein&#39;s Tentacles, Matt Taibbi Wants to Know Why Dick Fuld And John Mack Aren&#39;t Reaching Low For the Dove)&lt;/p&gt;
