Boo Hoo Column of the Day

The following is from Jane Pedreira, a former senior Veep at Lehman:

I was robbed first by Ben Bernanke, the Federal Reserve chairman, and Henry Paulson, the former Treasury secretary, who refused to support a sale of the company, and later by the bankruptcy judge who approved the sale of Lehman to Barclays for peanuts.
I am still unable to pay all of my bills. I know the public at large doesn’t have sympathy for Wall Street employees, but did I deserve to be robbed because of the mistakes of others?

Oh brother.
