I wasn't sure where to post this, but Scott has the situation with 'toxic' assets so well sewn up I decided to put it where it might be taken more seriously:

For those of you not familiar with the comic strip Dilbert, check into it. In sardonic format, this is as close to business reality/Catch 22/insanity as it gets.
Characters:
Dilbert: the unfulfilled, hopeless employee consigned to "Cubicle Hell."
Dogbert: the quintessential "Consultant"/tech support troll/financial "expert."
Catbert: the Evil Director of Human Resources.
Ratbert: Hmmmm, can't really remember.
 Wally: the ultimate survivor. He does nothing; isn't responsible for anything; always manages to stay out of the line of fire, and always survives. Wally is the happiest character in Dilbert.
The Boss: the ultimate boss. He knows nothing; dumps on everyone; is terrified of upper management; gets paid a lot to do all of the above.
Scott Adams is the cartoonist. The best insight into the insanity of business existence.
