1. K&R
On December 4, 1928, it (Goldman Sachs) launched the Goldman Sachs Trading Corp. a closed-end fund with characteristics similar to that of a Ponzi scheme. The fund failed as a result of the Stock Market Crash of 1929, hurting the firm's reputation for several years afterward.<5> Of this case and others like Blue Ridge Corporation <6> and Shenandoah Corporation <7> John Kenneth Galbraith wrote: The Autumn of 1929 was, perhaps, the first occasion when men succeeded on a large scale in swindling themselves.<8>

looks like a good case to issue a corporate death penalty: everybody knows they'll do it again...it's just their corporate culture and it's part of their identity.
