  • Please check out the Fat Cat Bankers by Tokyo Rose

  • Capitalism is sweet

  • Ah man it's about time the bankers got a bonus! Good for you Wall Street.

  • Hopefully "a couple of years" = 5 or so years. By then I'll be in a more economically stable country, like Ecuador or Ethiopia.

  • If they failed the smaller banks will buy up the bigger banks.

  • I feel kind of sorry for the citizens of America.

    In most corrupted governments, the people know where the money's going and either protest it or support it. In the states, the politicians hide everything in order to look good, so the people have to protest the concealment of information before they can protest what's actually being concealed.

  • Wonder what kind of degree you need to work on wall street.

  • @Tony007corp buisness

  • @Tony007corp In theory, something related to economics. in reality, you are just brn into it. All you need to do is be good at modern theft.

  • "Mission Accomplished!"

  • @KOMC4444

    They are CUNTS, NOT DICKS. Wall Street men all have VAGINAS and PUSSIES! They DONT have DICKS, COCKS, PECKERS and PEEPEES!

  • @ecwaufisxtreme For someone who thinks that "women are the superior sex", you sure are disrespectful to them.

  • @GJNCA

    That is RIGHT, we need female SUPERIORITY in this world for women are SUPERIOR TO MEN! Men are ALL DICKLESS and BALLESS BITCHES and PUSSIES!

  • @ecwaufisxtreme Don't give us that fucking bullshit. Put women in power, and they will all become corrupted by money as well. People are people. You fucking americans are brutal for putting racial/gender terms over fucking EVERYTHING.

  • @Reggis420

    Women are NOT corruptable for they are the SUPERIOR SEX and the SEX of GOD HERSELF! Men are corruptable for they are INFERIOR to Women and to GOD! Women are PURE while men are dirty! We NEED an ALL-WOMAN GOVT that will clean and purify this country and turn it into the Palination. All of the world's FUCKUPS are done entirely by men!

  • @ecwaufisxtreme Wow... Just wow.

  • @ecwaufisxtreme Oh please. That is why all teenage girls are led by their hormones to bad boys in leather jackets on motorcycles looking for love. Women are the most easily corruptible sex out of the two. If women ran the entire government of all nations nothing would ever get done and we would fall back into a global dark age that men would have to return and save the world from. Women are stupid.

  • @DanMorgan98

    Wow, i just chastised her for her tripe, but your response is not much better.

    You guys need to stfu and post back a few years from now after you mature somewhat and have eductaed yourselves. Can you honestly post such ridiculous genreralizations with a straight face?

  • @ecwaufisxtreme

    Wow. Just wow. How old are you, exactly?

  • The right wing is always talking about too much spending?! But they're the ones who deficit spend... The Motto for the GOP and WallStreet should be, Bankrupt the Government (Little People), Fatten Up the Rich.. Disgusting.. :o

  • Love Cenk!

  • You're all invited to live in the most stable, economically sound country in the world right now. Just head north and bring a toque. (Hope you like beer!)

  • Name Names!!!!

  • I wasn't aware that the country had inadequate coverage for its banking needs. I suppose if you're making intangible products that don't stem out anywhere outside of its own industry, without having any additional industries getting any business out of it, IE You make a car, rubber, metal, and plastic companies get paid for selling to you. With bank betting, no one else gets anything. It'll be the only industry left.

  • It's sad when a country's people are to busy waiting with bated breath on who will be left on American Idol and gratifying their egos with whispers to an imaginary friend to notice how they get so badly taken advantage of.

  • China does Derivative trading is this correct? So if the US doesn't do Derivative trading like China, how can the US stay ahead of China. The government knows what it's doing so don't worry they r smarter then the common pple, trust ur Government.

  • @superphi

    government of common people elected by common people influenced by greedy common people in faceless corporations of common people.... No matter how you spin it, you still dealing with common people, people of the land, clay of the new west, you know morons.... (sorry couldn't help using the Mel Brooks reference)

  • the next depression will come in soon

  • I BELIEVE PEOPLE HAVE TO BE FLEXIBLE & I DONT WANT PROGRESSIVES TO BE AS RIDGED AS THE TEA BAGGERS BUT WE NEED TO GROW A BACK BONE & QUIT VOTING FOR CORPORATE DEMOCRATS. EVEN IF WE LOOSE OUT IN THE SHORT RUN.

  • Did congress seriously pass a financial reform bill that didn't reform anything?

  • @mchlawilliams

    Pretty much.

  • This just ruined my day.

  • Although i am on corporate America's side, Obama has been a failure as a president

  • @kylecoolio12 um why?

  • What are you gonna do Cenk? This is so bad you should advice people to never again vote for the democrats.

  • @MustacheVerra I think you mean for anyone. Unless you're implying the Republicans are the solution. If that's the case...

  • @gyneve Yes of course. It's just that TYT is more left wing so i was talking to them.

    The GOP is just as bad...

  • The ugly truth is that Obama and the Democrats did nothing to rein in the excesses of the financial industry. Everybody in Congress and the White House are complicit in destroying the American economy.

  • shoot the fuckers in the head.

  • I think Obama is the biggest failure, cuz as opposed to bush - because I feel he has the highest % of campaign promises that were not kept

  • @restlys - sad but true. Obama made his deals with the PTB before he even went onto the campaign trail. Every "Yes we Can!" promise he made during while running for President was purely for getting the votes. He had no intention of coming through on these promises.

  • ... Shadowrun, anyone?.

  • Naw america is dictatorship basically two party's same goal

  • We're the Wall Street pirates, we're the mad captains of finance...

  • I can't wait for this collapse. A couple more collapses and we can finally take to the streets. I'm tired of seeing the stock market go up. Let the stock prices reach $0. As long as we have this system, we are fucked.

  • @imover18gotityube I just hope we still have streets when it comes to that.

  • @imover18gotityube I agree completely. I have no children to worry about right now, so let the revolution take this shit over!

  • we need revolution civil war 2???

  • @xxLatinKillaxx yes yes yes

  • I feel soooo much fucking better already.

  • I will say it liek it is. THAT is what you get for having a 2 party system. Its YOUR fault for electing teh same 2 partys over and over again for decades.

    Dont be angry at teh bankers cause they are greedy, because thats just human nature.Im 100% shure that the most of you woudl exactly to teh same in their situations, becasue money=power.

    Rather be angry at your governmetn allowing thsi kind of shit and takign bribes to ensure it stays that way. And be angry at your self for voting like idiots

  • Awwwww bankers make more money than Cenk. Poor baby, maybe he should stop whining like a bitch and become a banker.  But that would take intellegience and hard work. He'd rather steal money from the rich cuz its easier and "fair"

    Cenk=epic fail

  • @aarondavid826 Ohhhhh I get it, you're a conservative troll.

  • @OlSpazzy a libertarian realists actually

  • @aarondavid826 Ohhhh I get it, you're a total nut.

  • @OlSpazzy stalker

  • @aarondavid826 Heyyy, I was a Libertarian who became a realist. When I realized that Libertarian iews made the rich richer d the poor poorer and "trickle down" was a gimick that amounted to getting pissed on, I became a Progressive.

  • @jstutz2003 i understand, stealing money is easier than earning it

  • @aarondavid826 Yep, because I am stealing so much money from the government on E3 pay in the military...

  • @OlSpazzy He's a libertarian realist.

    Libertarians that believes in reality are as common as unicorn wranglers or hydra breeders.

  • @aarondavid826 How does Cenk steal from the rich? He makes his money like everyone else, by working for it. You can't be that ridiculous, can you?

  • @eirefrance He wants to redistribute the wealth. He wants to tax the rich at a higher % than others. That's called stealing disguised as "fairness" Some people are more successful than others, get over it.

  • @aarondavid826 No, stealing is getting rich on the backs of others. Sitting back and letting your peons do all the work while you make all the money. Of course, you aren't just stealing their money, you also walk away with their health and in many cases, their lives.

  • @jstutz2003 How

  • @aarondavid826 No, some people have the good fortune to be born into their lifestyle. Some have the misfortune at being born into poverty. The people that control most of the wealth push their views and "morals" on everybody else. Taxing the rich at a higher percentage would, in fact, constitute being fair.

  • @oexnorth no its stealing. So you were born into poverty. Tough, life isn't fair.  This is America, Your success or failure is determined by yourself, not government handouts. People who want higher taxes for the rich are just jealous.

  • @aarondavid826 No, its fair. Some people want a little equality. Don't give me that "this is America" bullshit. This nation was built on the backs of the exploited impoverished.

  • @aarondavid826 Actually it's you who is the epic fail. You accuse Cenk of not being intelligent and working hard, and those two qualities Cenk does have. Maybe it is you who aren't intelligent, and maybe it is you who haven't worked an honest day's worth in your life, idiot.

    And, as for him preferring to steal money from the rich because its easier and fair, well, epic fail on you again, he wants to take all the money that the rich corporations don't need and give it to the American people.

  • Who believes we are in for another downfall before we recover from the one we're in right now?

  • This guarantees another recession, one we won't recover from.

  • Its not only the US suffering this crap, the UK is too, because idiots say "we cant make them pay they will leave" like tools. So while the BAF get pay freeze for 3 years above lance, the bankers get massive pay bonus, lovely.

  • Erect the guillotines on Wall Street.

  • Can't wait till Zimbabwe and American dollars trade 1 for 1. I need new wall paper.

  • the signs are growing more and more. the enemy is working through people, both aware and unaware, to confuse as many as possible. nibiru, planet x, the destroyer, whatever you want to call it, it is a heavenly sign. Destruction is coming

  • @GJNCA

    There wont be a President Glen Beck for all presidents after Palin will be conservative white women! Obozo will be THE LAST MAN to be president. All male presidents SUCK ASS!

  • When Palin becomes President and America becomes the Palination, she will PUT Wall Street in its place and main street will completely thrive! The Palin govt will make Wall Street completely accountable and will put an end to Wall Street corruption on screwing the people and all the taxpayers! If any Wall Street CEO or trader dare cross and defy President Palin, she will UNLEASH the FURY and WRATH of GOD HERSELF onto that poor minion and EXPOSE his PUSSY for the WHOLE WORLD to SEE!

  • @ecwaufisxtreme hahaha palin making wall street accountable? Kid, I don't know what you're smoking, but if you haven't noticed yet, the GOP Reagan crowd is ALL about selling out to wall street, removing all government regulation so wall street can rob us blind. They did it this past decade and they'll do it again with smiles on their faces.

  • @ normalais:

    "Kid, I don't know what you're smoking" - exactly.

    These people live in cloud-cuckoo-land. To them, Palin is a all-knowing goddess who will just fix anything like McGyver. Together with her friend Joe the Plumber she can even make that all the Tea Party-people can flush their turds again. O_o

    Amazing how so many people irrationally believe that intelligent stuff would ever come from a imbecile person. Is this Republican-style superstition or something?

  • It's insanely illogical that anyone would allow this to continue... it is a scenario that no one will win... the 'money' bankers made will be worthless when the country collapse under its own inflated weight... yet somehow they don't see that.

  • @BioCapsule No, it is highly logical.

    It takes money to elect a government.

    These people have all the money.

    Therefore, they can elect whatever government they want.

  • @dangerouslytalented

    Off course, money buys politicians. All male presidents from Washington to Obozo are all bought by the corporations. Palin will be the first president that will NOT be bought by the corporations for she is truly the President of the people and GOD HERSELF!

  • @dangerouslytalented I disagree... because the value of the 'money' to elect a government depend only on them able to maintain stability... the way they are going... the money wouldn't have any value to elect anything. That why so many economist keep warning that its not a sustainable system... they are building on huge sums of money that never really existed in the 1st place. You can't keep coming up with those numbers & expecting nothing would go wrong.

  • @BioCapsule Which makes sense if you are thinking long term.

    The banksters are not thinking long term.

    They are robbing the bank, they don't care WHO gets hurt or bribed, as long as, at the end of the day, they make off with billions.

    The banksters have all the power.

    It is not how things SHOULD be. It is just how things ARE.

  • Thinking of Obama's performance as the president, I don't know if to choke on my vomit or because of laughing too hard

  • @ppxoon Compared to the previous guy, or that guys father, or the movie star before HIM, or the peanut farmer before HIM, or the underpants model before HIM, or the crook before HIM, he is doing rather well.

  • I say let the conservatives take over. Let them fuck everything up leaving the dollar completely useless. Then we grab our pitchforks and shovels and run them out of town. Then we shall rebuild.

  • @b3rtne

    too bad societies cannot rebel like that anymore... if the US goes bankrupt well be under Chinese Martial Law. (half-joking/half-serious)

  • @ben2point0

    Fuck it. We're screwed anyway. Might as well not beat around the bush.

  • @b3rtne The problem,is that the way civilized people rebel is by electing somebody like Obama. Change, but simply not enough, moderate, almost conservative.

  • sad face :(

  • I can't wait to not vote in 2012.

  • let's all hire on Wall Street. I mean all. maybe it's the only way this system can implode or lose it's existence purpose

  • how the fuck is this shit legal

  • change we can believe in...

  • a bill that does not protect the people from wall street is NOT reform.

  • Why not? When you have absolutely zero risk, and you can rely on the taxpayers to cover your stupidity, why not take advantage of it? That is after all, the free market at work. Free of risk, free of cost.

    I totally agree with the characterization of "highway robbery."

    Come election time, every voter should be asking, "What did my congressmen/women do for ME with respect to the economic mess we're in?" They better get used to the sound of crickets.

  • We are powerless to fix this corrupt system. Each election, they give us either a republican or a democrat to choose from. All of them are useless. We waste so much time and energy arguing over idealogical social issues, which splits the country 50/50.

    We are too divided to unite against the powerful few and stop them from looting our economy. When they've drained us for all we're worth, we'll be a shadow of the country we used to be, and the elite will set up shop in China.

  • @krebul I don't think we are powerless- I think we are not motivated. For starters, why do we keep re-electing the same scum year after year? Anyone who had anything to do with the current "fix" for wall street should be looking for work after the next election.

  • Wow...more people need to watch TYT instead of FOX NEWS...and maybe they will learn something

  • @jinnai1 I've made this my main news channel a while back. :) These guys give it to you straight.

  • great video

  • LOL AMERIKKKA

  • Frustrating, absolutely frustrating.

  • This is when I start kind of hoping a bunch of rednecks storm congress and wipe everyone out.

    I'm sure I'm wrong to think like that. I mean, that couldn't possibly be right... This is what I tell myself.

  • Comment removed

  • @darealdjnutz

    Red necks, taking out Wall Street bankers? That goes beyond my capacity for suspension of disbelief.

  • @TheGiantRobot Agreed, most rednecks are Republicans; voting against their own interest.

  • @darealdjnutz

    Yeah, I think of Republicans as orcs. They are so greedy and hateful that they'd rather live in a society where they might get to be on top and oppress others than a society where no one gets oppressed.

  • Financial reform failure. Don't you just like getting ass raped by the big banksters, big business and our corrupt government. Change we can believe in indeed.

  • @EhrgeizUnlimited At least the Dems are willing to pretend. The Republicans don't even try to pretend who they work for.

  • @darealdjnutz That may be true but I don't like being pissed on then told that it is raining. I much rather have a government that serves the people and we are not going to get that form the dems or repubs.

  • @EhrgeizUnlimited While I don't disagree, the financial reform bill passed days ago. These figures are from months ago. Financial reform hasn't had time to fail yet.

  • @EhrgeizUnlimited  I'll keep the change, just get the GOP road blocks out of the way... So we can repave the roads...

  • Who came up with this "too big to fail" horseshit phrase? Let us call it what it really is, corporate monopolies that manipulate and sabotage the political system and use the country's resources against well over 99% of the country.

  • @mistacramer Here here.

  • Why don't we all be bankers. All of us. We can all be a country of people who make millions of imaginary money, WORKING with imaginary money. No ACTUAL production at all.

    We're drug addicts.

  • @Dradeeus Whadya mean? Drinking high-end hooch, smoking illegal cigars, playing golf on sunday and banging the secretary on monday.

    Truely, they EARN their pay...

  • Capitalism at it's best. What are you all American complaining about? This is what majority of you guys want anyway. Even when you get fudge in the ass by capitalism.

  • @zubawanga This isn't capitalism - it's corruption.

  • @l0gically

    Capitalism is close relative with corruption. Both is all about money, power, freedom to do whatever you want. But who are we kidding here, corruption is everywhere and this is capitalism at it's best, not corruption.

    I can find a lot better corruption example then this.

  • what about other jobs in NYC? trickle down? bwahahahaha!!!

  • Well, At least someone is hiring for jobs.

  • its fractional reserve banking.  since 1913

  • over 70% of american's think congress is corrupt, yet a congressman has a 90% incubancy rate. People will protest anything the media labels socialist, remember "healthcare reform". Obama is still quoted in the news from saying "spreading the wealth around is good". Then we have nuts saying he's the anti christ. In the meantime, the rich are crushing us. The rich get richer and the poor will be blamed in the form of cuts in education, healthcare, public saftey etc. Americans dont even do anything

  • The truth is scary :(

    Quick, hide.

  • OBAMA IS NOT THE PRESIDENT CORPORATIONS ARE!

  • @theabomation but obama is still complicit in it. he could be president if he wanted to be. he has chosen to let corporations run his show.

  • @theabomation Corporations are our owners.

  • @theabomation The Corporations have been in charge of this country WAAAAY b4 Obama started making his promises that he had ZERO intentions of keeping...

  • @theabomation

    So if the corporations keep running the country, no matter what president there is, then there is a mix between democracy and dictatorship. Oef... That sounds bad :)

  • If someone gives you a hundred dollars on the street, you haven't robbed him. He's just a sucker giving his money away.

    The tax payers are the suckers.

  • @xlibra15

    Except in this situation, the tax payers weren't given a choice. Hardly anyone willingly gave their money to them, the Government decided, not us.

  • Its official... I have lost all faith in the U.S. government. until we get some REAL progressives in the white house, were just going to get fucked over and over again by these assholes.

  • @quinnmcguee He sure is fightin for the people, isn't he?

    /end sarcasm

  • Alex Keaton is behind all this. He's lost his _family ties_

  • lol... suprise bitches!! It's easy to steal money when you have the most powerful thugs in the cuntry on your side, amirite? or amirite?

  • HAHAHAHAHA i get it............oh wait....

  • God damnit it's like these guys aren't even paying attention to what happens! They're going to destroy this country and never realize/admit it's their fault.

  • @MrTroxel Like they give a damn about your country, we live in a time where corporations rule and decides what you do, what you eat, where you work, what you learn, what songs you should listen to etc. They own you!!! if you havent realize this yet you better start taking control of your own actions and reanalyze your past actions whether it was your own will or was it "suggested" to you

  • Theyre pissin on you, what the hell are you guys doing about it?

    Im watching dudes, im watching

  • ...**yanks hair out**

  • yep.. they get money out of one government pocket to use.. why does the government still give em money ?? that money should have been cut off long ago it really never should have been started

  • bullshit!!!! wtf r these ppl doing to us!?

  • why does the gov let them get away with stealing our money

  • @jinkazamalovnat They get a dividend. Sadly, U.S. currency will be worthless when the system collapses, must be why buying gold is hot right now. lol

  • more jobs is good for our economy at this point don't you think?

  • @moviedude22 moar jobs is good four us all! jobs four all!

  • I strongly dislike the Jews.

  • wow

  • shit
