I somewhat agree with the OP. The hedge fund Paulson asked Goldman to build a Swaps or aka "Investment packages" that was built around sub-prime mortgages. Once theses swaps were created and sold to other banks WHY did Paulson BUY insurance on them. Because he knew that they would fail?????? 
and what upsets me the most Goldman paid a small fine and Paulson got off without any penalization. Again...these people/banks making money off the middle class.

btw - its not the first time paulson has made a bundle
