We are their public insurance policy for private business failures - and the government backs up that relationship with authority and corrupt, now, immoral laws. Neither Democrats nor Republicans are ever to be trusted, now. They have less to lose by not upholding their oath of office than they do by not fulfilling their promises to their corporate sponsors. Their pockets are too deeply lined by money and power that have come from unrestrained Capitalism. This last week proves it.

Due april had it close…

only backwards most foreign banks didn’t have the same limits on banking investments that the US has.. so most of the banks around the world were in BAD shape… in fact if the fed had oversight on them.. almost all would have been siezed already..they simply aren’t solvent enough…

the world was facing a vast economic breakdown that would have made the great depression look like a hiccup….. the US although less effected immediately would have been drug down when our economic partners fell apart economically.

so it was a choice.. shoot yourself in the head or the foot.
