5 minutes to ask where 250 Billion dollars of American tax payers money is? Really? If the IRS was questioning us where our tax money is are they only going to ask us for 5 mins or drill us till we pay or go to jail?
Grayson you are a God send. If you were President, America and the rest of the nations would be prospering now. I wish you would run for President because you sure got my vote. Keep the pressure on these crooks and the truth will come out how these bankers have been manipulating wars just to benifit from them. They are all lucaferians and I hope they all burn in hell.
5 minutes to ask a greedy business man questions about screwing tax payers over is ridiculous. I understand things should have a time limit but 5 minutes is to little time to dig deep into these problems.
The Federal Reserve is a group of PRIVATELY owned banks. Refer to the Federal Reserve Act of 1913 when Woodrow Wilson gave away the US to the banks.
Thomas Jefferson has this to say about the central bank. A private central bank issuing the public currency is a greater menace to the liberties of the people than a standing army... We must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt.
"Give me control of a nation's money and I care not who makes the laws." Mayer Amschel Rothschild
These bankers are nothing but thieves. They were deregulated and immediately went to gambling with our homes and pensions; no, in fact, they wrote mortgages that were INTENDED to fail, insured them (we pick up the bill), and BETTED on them failing. Before 9-11 happened, white collar crimes were exceeding anything in history, and the FBI indicated that 80 FUCKING PERCENT of fraud committed in mortgage agreements was done BY THE LENDER, i.e. these big bank CEO pricks. Fuck them all.
The said joke is that Wachovia laundered billions of dollars for Mexican drug cartels. and nobody is being indicted,The phase to big to fail should be changed to big to indict.
most of these CEO's either are just dumb or act dumb.. this Citi CEO is arrogant in his attitude..when did the US go into the investment banking insurance business ?
Pandit signals to Frank by touching his eyeglasses and Barney Frank ends the questioning immediately. Grayson had over 30 seconds left. Wake up Americans. Its all a shell game played on top of our backs. Slavery exists in America. We are the debt slaves. We work and they live.
I want to know the truth now! Who helped Ben Bernanke embezzle our money? Who is Involved and how many? How long has this been going on for? Where is our money? How do we get it back?
I think an investigation should be done here and if it turns out that CitiGroup knew the full extent of the losses that they were about to incure and in turn withheld that information from the government, Vikram Pandit should go to jail.
LOL.. Seems like I hit a nerve... Your reply has nothing to do with what I've said.. Only a way to imply you make money and went to a high profile School.. Seems to me you are the one worrying about your Dick Size and inferiority.
These guys really fuckin' think that they're smarter than everyone else. I am a native New Yorker and unfortunately I know too many fuckin' lying cheating so called Big Shots who went to Harvard, Yale and other Cheat Factories who arrogantly presume that they deserve unlimited wealth without any productivity. The Sheeple have no idea the depravity, ruthlessness, uber-evil, murderous, MEGA-NARCISSIST nature of a small group of lowlives who manipulate their lives.
who ever banged that judges hammer is in on this deal i think. notice when pandit gets fidgety and adjusts his glasses the dude bangs the hammer for "times up"
Blaming the people that took the loans is an understandable statement...if you don't know the history of what has actually happpening. If you understood the monetary policy, as it has been designed over the last 30 years you'll see a pattern. That matches what was initially laid out over 80 years ago. Now all the folks that have done it right but now are in trouble, by your standard they're at fault as well. Look at your currency, its worthless, foriegn banks are running from our currency
Whats wrong, well if you go back into history and read about the teapot dome scandle then you might understand. This system is corrupt beyond imagination, and if people don't wake up its going to be very bad, we are at a crossroad. Only very few politicians will stand up, the rest are in to deep, or are understandably fearful. But a crowd of 100,000 storming a Fed bank wiil get attention, I just hope it doesn't come to that. So who wants to be free...or just go get some coffee at Starbuck peace
Ken Lewis looks like an evil man.. he has that ruthless look about him... but obviously, it has taken him to the zenith of the american capitalist echelons of the corporate world; CEO of BofA!!
It is almost impossible to go through all of these toxic assets. The only way to go about it is to pool a large amount of assets (good/bad) together to hopefully dilute the toxic content a little bit.
Thank you Congressman Grayson for representing the people.
this is absurd.. how can americans let such things go? they should be in streets protesting demanding their money.. how can the beleive in obama who made his own 780billion bill which is gonna be not effective in any way just like the oter 700billion rescue bill. how can americans let such corrupt system stay in power? America needs real change.. it needs an overhaul of its monetary system.. it needs a person like Ron Paul.
You are absolutely and completely correct. However, I feel Obama has very little to do with this, or very little that he will do with it. Americans are stupid, lazy, unaware and compliant. Individual Americans can be intelligent and proactive, but as a group we are preoccupied with us versus them topics of politics which distract us along with our true God: TV.
There is no sense of responsibility, ironic for a country of by and for the people.
It's not capitalism, what they are doing is theft. The game is rigged. It has nothing to do with free market capitalism. I paid for my home, I haven't had a credit card in over 30 years, I don't like it and I'm not going anywhere.
The government shouldn't bother to give Citigroup or Bank of America any more money; neither bank is going to make it. Instead, they should either be nationalized and restructured or broken up and sold off to JP Morgan and Wells Fargo.
JPMorgan and Wells Fargo are big enough already. What we really need is to get rid of these megabanks that have the potential, if they fail, to take down the whole economy with them. As Michael Moore has said, "If it's too big to fail, it's too big to exist."
Nationalization is definitely ideal. However, the government has been dancing around the issue and refuses to accept it as an option, at least for now anyway, so Wells and JP Morgan might end up eating the other two anyway at firesale prices. When the crisis ends, all the big banks should definitely be split up to avoid the need for a ridiculous bailout when the next financial crisis occurs.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Vikram Pandit has the capacity to recover Citigroup through his leadership. He has basically resuscitated it from a mega 'cardiac arrest' if you will in late 2007 and although the shares of Citi are shit right now, the upside potential is ridiculously high!
And to make things even worse! In the final few minutes of the passage of the stimulus package, the part placing a limit on executive salaries was removed. That was the best part!
We should try to calculate how much impoverishment someone like Vikram Pandit is responsible for, and require that he pay that amount to charity. And if he can't, jail him.

hahaha12345678993 3 years ago 3
then why not also shoot the homeowners who took the loan fully knowing that they wont be able to pay back the loans
its easy to criticize the banks but the fault also lies with people who took the loans and could never pay their mortgages .
People who never pay their credit card bills are also to blame
its easy to criticize some ceo who makes millions for your mistakes
they make money because they are brighter smarter and more educated than you
