From http://borowitzreport.com/article.aspx?ID=7047:
According to Goldman spokesperson Jonathan Hestron, the merger between Goldman and the Treasury Department is "a good fit" because "they're in the business of printing money and so are we."

The Goldman spokesman said that the merger would create efficiencies for both entities: "We already have so many employees and so much money flowing back and forth, this would just streamline things."

Mr. Hestron said the only challenge facing Goldman in completing the merger "is trying to figure out which parts of the Treasury Dept. we don't already own."

Goldman recently celebrated record earnings by roasting a suckling pig over a bonfire of hundred-dollar bills.

Elsewhere, conspiracy theorists celebrated the 40th anniversary of NASA faking the moon landing.

Goldman recently celebrated record earnings by roasting a suckling pig over a bonfire of hundred-dollar bills.

Heh. So far, Goldman has allocated $11 billion for bonuses. At 1 gram per $100 bill, that is about 11 metric tons of currency, which would be far too much for roasting just one pig.
