We Wall Street bankers are sorry our risky behavior caused the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression...
But it seemed appropriate at the time.
Our companies received more than $100 billion in taxpayer assistance to weather the crisis.
We are correcting some compensation practices that could lead to excessive risk-taking.
We will continue to pay people in a "responsible and disciplined manner" to attract and retain top talent.
Yippee! I'm gonna get more big bonus bucks!
