This was truely fraud. The reason TARP so “easily” passed, is that the cabinet threatened to invoke marshal law if it was not passed. There are sessions from CSPAN on youtube with congressmen referring to this threat.

The Chinese put these trangressors in front of a firing line. It is amazing to see the gangsters we have running our country. Is Hank Paulson or Alan Greenspan Bernanke or Robert Rubin kids serving in Afghanistan or Iraq? Are these ‘masters of the universe” without a health insurance plan that 40 million Americans go without. Where is Robespearre when you nedd him. Or at the very least the mob ought to strip all these gangsters fortunes and throw them in jail and let them make a living like the 40 million who aren’t provided health insurance at a minimum wage job…they took the money from the public to pay billions for their mistakes and their personal fortunes. I believe a bit of grape shot is needed in their direction.

A “wealth transfer scheme”–sounds like something the French might have been screaming at the barricades…some kind of supreme horror. It’s bad, right?

I was trying to figure this out for myself and see what others thought when I came across “cheesecake”, and went all Homer Simpson, mmmm….

Then, “The little guy always gets screwed”, reminded me: that’s what my first true love used as a “nickname”…

I think it would be best if I went shopping.

But first, have you heard the 4 Horsemen might have something planned for Christmas? Somewhere around Fresno is what I heard…

Yes Ian, they were Republicans. Does the “One Party System (with 2 heads)” suprise you? It’s welfare-warfare now, when it used to be warfare-welfare before. The differences between the Demublicans and the Republicrats are trivial. The new President of Change did alot. He kept the Sec Def and brought all of Bill Clinton’s people back to administer to us. As a writer here at W&GP said: “BOHICA” (bend over, here it comes again).

The thing that everyone seems to have forgotten is that the bailout, the biggest socialist style redistribution of wealth ever, was accomplished by conservative republicans smelling that lovely pork.

As this Perfect Storm gains momentum and the reality becomes apparent, as usual:
1. The little guy always get screwed, also many who thought they were going to dine at the head table.
2. The Empire collapses. The little guy will not notice much change, his standard of living might improve away from the cities.
3. Smart money already left the country. It is unlikely that Paulson and his ilk get hunted down and brought to justice, one way or another. The rest will fight like convicts over a pack of smokes for survival.
4. The wrong lessons will be recorded in history. Bernanke/Greenspan and another class of pimps, hustlers and whores will rise like a Phoenix every so many generations to do their damage.
5. World War will follow the next Great Depression. The four horsemen of the Apocalypse stretch their legs.
6. We get a new world order. Maybe this time Muslims get to rule the world.
7. Evil blots out the light for a while. God is on a lot of people’s minds.
