  • Volcker's Wake Up Call: Spread the Word [View article]
    The only thing tht will stop the thieft of billions of dollars from the average citizen is a collapse of these TBTF banks. I propose that the fastest and easyest is to indict the criminals responsible using the RICO statutes specfically designed for organized crime.

    Start with the congress (Frank, Dodd, Pelosi, Rangel) and work your way up to the bankers.

  • Why Is the Government Holding Wells Fargo Hostage?  [View article]
    The answer why is simple. Goldman Sachs (GS) is trying to kill another competitor through its puppet the US Government. It killed Lehman that way so why not WF??? The GS alumni are so pervasive in the treasury that they are still trying to get an old enemy even tho they arent in the game.

  • Gerry Corrigan’s Case for Large Integrated Financial Groups [View article]
    I agree with your points, but Gerry Corigan is a GS alumni. He is only worried about the guys in his Wall Street-Connecticut-the Hamptons world. They kept their jobs, they get their bonuses, their Christmas will be fine. It is the rest of us, the sheeple shorn, who are paying for all of his friends good times. GC is just another propogandist trying to soften up the masses so GS, Citi and the rest can blow a bubble, pop it and make money on both sides.

    How do I know? Why GS paid off the administration with a $500 million plan for helping small business. Small inner-city, "underserved" businesses. To GS 500 Million is chump change, and the American people are the chumps.

  • The Return of the Plutocrats [View article]
    There is still class warfare going on! It is just that it is the rich "Plutocrats" who are wageing it against the rest of the population. There arent any leaders, no William Wallace, from the bottom who can rally the common man against the triany of the PTB.

  • Time for FDIC to Back Off Citi [View article]
    lazybun, how can you suggest that BHO might be inexperienced? Watch it or you will wind up on the Do Not Fly list!

    Between Blair & Pandit - a pox on both of them! Our country is in the hands of corporate shills and corrupt pols. I doubt either of B or P have commited any illegal acts, but with all of the corruption and pork barrel earmarks, AIG funds conduit to GS, and the rest of the crap effected by both administrations. Both GWB and BHO have and continue to lead administrations that serve only the top 1% at the expense of the middle class, and leave the welfare class on the government plantation.

    Throw all the bums out of office -
    Term limits for Congress,
    One in Washington,
    One in Prison!

  • Geithner's Phone Calls: The Issue Is Access [View article]

  • Too Big to Fail - Everyone but Washington Knows What Needs to be Done [View article]
    "While Dimon gave Paulson, Bernanke and Geithner a free pass for letting Lehman fail"

    And why not? Dimon is EX-Goldman Sachs, and letting Lehman fail was the GS method of killing their last real rival. They had their pets in the government do the dirty deed. Jim Cramer has been telling the truth for years, it is a government of, by and for the corporations!

    If only the RICO statutes applied to the FED, the Treasurery and wallstreet instead of main street.

  • Ending the Off-Balance Sheet Charade [View article]
    First of all the banks own the government and the poiticians. The outright thieft going on and encouraged by both patties is due to the huge campaign contributions by the banks and GSEs (FNE & FRE) to pols in control (Dodd, Franks & the fromer jr sen from Illinois).

    Doing what you suggest would cost the top 5% of the population money so it willl NEVER happen.

  • Wall Street Breakfast: Must-Know News [View article]
    I agree with you 100%, but it will never happen because there is too much at stake. The feds will find a way to discredit Cumo and stop the light from shining on their treason.

  • Bailouts: Revisionist History [View article]
    Give me a break! Tim (I cant figure out Turbo Tax) Gietner is NOT trying to correct the oligopoly of the big banks, he is helping enforce it. This whole administration is using Animal Farm as a play book to script their responses to questions about their actions.

    These banks need to be broken up, they should have been allowed to go bankrupt. I understand it would have caused a huge financial mess for those involved with the wall street crowd. But it would have allowed those banks or Credit Unions who didnt lend irresponsibly to pick up the pieces.

    What we have is a RICO stiuation between the congress and the big businesses that will never be investigated, let alone prosecuted. The congress passes laws to help those who stuff their campaign coffers and forget the rest of the country.

    Look at goooh.com and get rid of these thieves! Both parties are moraly corrupt and complicent in selling America to the highest bidder.
