JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon expressed frustration at the U.S. federal government during the company's earnings conference call Friday.

"It's almost an embarrassment being an American citizen traveling around the world and listening to the stupid s--- we have to deal with in this country," Dimon said in response to an analyst question.

"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. "What I'm saying is it would be much stronger growth had we made intelligent decisions and were there not gridlock."...

I agree.

It's also a HUGE embarrassment being an American citizen that this stupid leech is an American citizen, let alone breathing my air.

If Aaron Burr were here today I'd gladly help him reload so he could shoot Dimon twice before getting on to other business.

JP Morgan benefited immensely from the free money sent its way during the bank crisis. It takes no brainpower to borrow trillions from the Federal Reserve at 0 percent interest, and lend it back to them at 3% interest.

Right there with Jay Gould.
