now, we were making fun of kramer long before jon stewart did. he just made it more popular. and i have been told this borders on child abuse, but for ten minutes i made kevin watch kramer's mad money. he heard the bells, the whistles, the screaming. and he thought it was a joke. i tried to explain to him, that millions of investors watch him, follow him, and take his advice. i think only today, because he heard me give a few of these presentations -- he has bronchitis today and couldn't be here but he actually believes this is true. so, adults, we watch too much financial tv. now, it may not be as animated as kramer but we will watch cnbc in the morning thinking we're get something real insights and we know what the mark is going to do in the next two hours. so, again, this is just for the record, we were comparing kramer to spongebob in the book, one is a real cartoon, the other is a human cartoon, and i did make a public apology on youtube for that analogy of comparing spongebob to kramer. so i apologized to spongebob and all the creatures. so there's nothing simple at tac

so here's jon stewart with the bottom line. >> how is it happening? well, it's simple. let me explain. the u.s. economy is basically a pyramid. and it's taken some real hits lately. unemployment is at a 26-year high. 6.5 million jobs have been lost. 1.9 million house foreclosure filings just this year! and consumer confidence is at an all-time low. all economic indicators that have left the beloved top of our pyramid, the eye, goldman sachs, in peril. they can survive the loss of the foundation, but once they get poked in the eye, hmm! anyway that's where the government came in. first, they let a couple of goldman sachs' competitors, like lehman brothers and bear stearns collapse or be absorbed. that can't be bad for goldman's business. then we gave aig $13 billion so they could pay back 100 cents on the dollar, the $13 billion they owed goldman sachs. then we let goldman sachs become a holding bank and gave them loan guarantees to keep their cost of capital down. it's what's known in business as the invisible government-funded scaffolding of the free market. and it wor
