Citibank agrees to pay $285 million fine for selling toxic mortgage assets and BETTING AGAINST THEM. After taking $45 billion in TARP money. That's 0.0063%.

I hope everyone (regardless of their political affiliations) finds this as grotesque as I do.
I bet the folks who've lost their homes would be happy to pay only 0.0063 of their mortgages off.......
