CDS have destroyed our shares
But the potential damage that CDS could do was not limited to financial firms, Mr. Soros added. He pointed to the bankruptcy of North America's largest newsprint maker, AbitibiBowater Inc., and the pending bankruptcy of General Motors.

That was Abitibi's management's fault, not Prem Watsa or the current RFP shareholders. No one should have been bailed out. You don't get to blame the government when the CDS agreement that management entered into doesn't work in their favour.
