JPMorgan CEO blows up at Washington's 'stupid s---'
By Vicki Needham
07/14/17
JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon on Friday railed against Washington's failure to address sweeping policy issues like tax reform and infrastructure spending.
Dimon, head of the world’s largest bank, expressed frustration during JPMorgan earnings calls, saying the United States is missing out on faster economic growth because of Washington gridlock.
"Since the Great Recession, which is now 8 years old, we've been growing at 1.5 to 2 percent in spite of stupidity and political gridlock, because the American business sector is powerful and strong," he said.
On recent trips to France, Ireland and Israel, Dimon said he found that those countries understand the importance of education and infrastructure.
"It's almost embarrassing being an American citizen … and listening to the stupid s--- we have to deal with in this country," Dimon said on the call, according to news reports.

Nothing new. We could have had cell phones in the 1960s but telecom companies did all they could to slow the progress. Bureaucracy at it's finest.

I agree with Jamie Dimon.

It's embarrassing that people like you were allowed to steal 100s of millions of dollars from American citizens and get away with it.

Put your jealousy aside. What does any of that have to do with his statement?

I fail to see the logic in your post.

He's right you know.

Maybe if we didn't give a bunch of money to bankers that failed we could have nice things.
He can go have intercourse with himself.

No jealousy, but disgust that a company that is doing so well and their CEO would issue a statement declaring embarrassment. This is what you get from the elite. His company is thriving. He is a Billionaire Embarrassment. Like I said before - frick him and his gold plated toilet seats.

His comments seem aimed at the wider economy. Again, I fail to see the logic in your post.

So would you say you love big bankers or just like them a lot?

None of that makes him wrong. I agree that the politics being played out in Washington today is hurting our country.

I agree with Dimon, but using the Irish as an example to lecture Americans about our political system and economy seems ridiculous given the Irish's fiancial fiasco from 2008-2014.

quote:Doing well is relative. Do you think the 1.5% growth of obamanomics was a good thing? Do you consider 1.5% growth as "doing so well". Dimon made it clear American business can swim successfully against the current, as has his. But the government created resistance is not helpful.
