Who Do You Blame For The Financial Crisis?

Isn't that what the bailouts are doing, or do you get a pass if you are one of the 'in crowd'?

I'm sure you are very happy that the Government have guaranteed your savings (psst by the time the house of cards collapses there'll be nothing left in the pot for those who ain't 'them'). But the money they are guaranteeing it with is the result of the labour of ALL working people. Including those on minimum wage.

What do you think 'interest' is? It's UNEARNED income, derived from greed. And it's all fine and dandy when those who 'have' get money that they haven't earned, but god forbid the peasants should attempt to get their snout in the trough too.

Millions of people are either on minimum wage or not much more, and they never had much left over at the end of the month. Certainly not enough to build savings and get rewarded with free money. Many don't even have enough to make it to the end of the month at the moment. Read THIS (scroll down a bit): working class people stopping off at glorified soup kitchens to get breakfast before going to work because their paycheck no longer stretches to that. IN AMERICA! These are not the 'feckless unemployed', these are part of the backbone of nations along with the middle classes. What used to be referred to as the "salt of the earth". Yet their taxes are going to help protect YOUR savings as well as the richest people in the land. What was that you were saying about "entitlement". Those guys are being shafted by the super rich and the middle classes with savings.

People bitching about the poor getting houses they can't afford is a joke. The corruption and greed of the banking sector got us in this mess. They know how stupid the masses are and how willing to blame other people - usually those who have the least - so they have no qualms about fleecing the public. We take it.

They used our money to keep paying themselves obscene bonuses and it's business as usual for most of them. Why do they care if we squeal about it, we won't actually do anything to stop them. Any Government who was really trying to sort things out would have started lending money to businesses directly and let the banks fall. New ones will spring up, isn't that the 'free market' so beloved of capitalism? The fact that Governments are NOT doing this but giving more money to the banks even though they are STILL refusing to lend it out, should tell you that Governments are in collusion.

So why do they want taxpayers money if they aren't going to lend it back out - which is what they claimed they needed to do? To protect their assets and steal yours. And they'll ask for more. And more. Until there is nothing left. They are printing money like it's going out of fashion and pretty soon we'll all be millionaires, just like those in Zimbabwe. But it'll be monopoly money and worth nothing. Only those at the very very top of the dungheap will still be left standing. They'll throw a few expendables to the wolves so they can say "see we are suffering too", and distract us from the problem. They have us blaming the poor; soon it'll be the immigrants, or a handful of renegade financiers, but it will NEVER be placed where it belongs.

The system is rotten and corrupt to it's core. All of it. Madoff is just the tip of the iceberg: they are hunting another banker at the moment involved in massive fraud and drug running. Remember the BCCI banking scandal a while back? They didn't go away, they merely changed tactics.

You watch, everything will unfold over the next few months and more banks will get 'nationalized'. I'm not against nationalization for vital assets but this isn't true nationalization it's just a means to consolidate power into the hands of fewer people. If you saw the Dunn & Bradsheet info you'll know that Governments are hiding an enormous secret - they are ALL registered commercial corporations - unbeknownst to us peons. Even The Haves are nothing more than bonded servants so have no cause to feel superior.

Personally I think we should do similar to what the French did prior to their Revolution. After all, these criminals are doing the equivalent of saying "Let them eat cake". Drag them out of their mansions and beat them to within an inch of their lives. Well okay, maybe no violence, but take back everything they have stolen and put them in the poorhouse for a change.

This crosses all political parties and the current Administration will not save us. As my Grandfather used to say, they all pee in the same pot.

Former Assistant to The Treasury during Reagans Administration knows what they are up to.

So bend over Paul, and let them screw you some more. 'Cause you know, they believe they are entitled. And them that Have are allowed to feel that way as it's the natural order of things. The Have Nots are not allowed because their purpose is to help The Haves get richer and they should stop whining about it the jealous little scrotes. But soon many of The Haves will become Have Nots and the view might start to look a little different.

Look at the parallels between the food crisis and the financial meldown. You'll note they used a similar modus operandi to sucker the poor into taking those 'sub-prime' mortgages. Clever aren't they?

But don't be feeling too smug when you are buying up all those foreclosures Paul, I fear they'll be getting around to you and others higher up the ladder soon enough.
