[blitzinger1]

Whoever thinks the big banks are 100% at fault here are stupid. Blame the niggers for taking out 400k mortgages while on welfare and not being able to pay their bills.

[Xeidasx]

@blitzinger1 hahahaha, its so true

[WhatCanIsay100]

I can't take this shit anymore.

Government assholes

[kipptumor]

They should have, instead of bailing out the insurance companies and bankers, written checks to every American citizen over the age of 18 for $10,000.00 a piece - THEN let the "free market" compete for those billions-TRILLIONS of dollars. The economy would have moved like Klee Irwin's bowels on Exlax.

Gobiernos del Mundo deben exigir capturar a estos desgraciados, que han hecho más rico a los Estados Unidos y más pobres a todos los pueblos del Mundo, a pesar de que la Crisis es sólo de EEUU, con este sistema se la han echado encima a los países del Mundo. Ahora EEUU con el mismo dinero compra el doble en el Mundo.

ES COMO UNA MAFIA, o pagas por las buenas o pagas por las malas, pero siempre pagas. Esta CRISIS es más una estafa que una crisis mundial en donde caen solo los inversionistas que se dejan engañar.

El Euribor es un interés que debe ser solo entre BANCOS, ya que son estos los que lo pactan y aceptan pagar. A los clientes se lo imponen cuando los Bancos están en problemas echándoles el problema al cliente. A nadie se le puede exigir aceptar algo que no puede controlar.

[Trollmaster21]

Put these wall street crooks in a real prison not a club fed with non violent offenders like check bouncers.

If we put a few of these corporate scumbags in general population of San Quinton or Folsom where they're at great risk of losing their manhood, corporate crime would vanish overnight.

[jobedied]

Flat tax on everything if you buy it pay the tax. 70% of corporations do not pay tax. Oil companies get hugh subsities of billions of dollars and beat goes on. The process that keeps it complex keeps the Animal Farm Pigs in control. Countries that have adapted Flat tax are thriving. No big IRS, harder to cheat and individuals and business are taxed alike . Businesses and corporations taxed only on there profits. Fair is Fair !!!! If you make million a year same rate as fifty thousand a year.

[jacksonwyld]

it's amazing that no one is doing anything about it. chex out JACKSON WYLD "UNEMPLOYED LOVER" hope u get a kick out of it.

[pgtv69]

The day Chris Cox is assasinated is the day americans will begin to recieve all they have lost in the past couple years.

[RichFuckersNOMORE]

politicians bailed rich folks from wallstreet out, people are smart enough to protest wallstreet but are still stupid enough to vote! amazing aint it

ill start voting and believing in politicians the day politicians bail out the homeless and the poor with the same amount of money they put out for rich greedy wallstreet snakes.

[jaim12005]

the problem is very complex- not just one easy fix will do it.

Not surprised most stations aren't running this CNN is doing a few interviews with a few wall street offenders that supposedly have see the light.

Personally rehashing old wall street crimals stories should be a filler after todays news... JMO

[mogilny89p]

First station I subscribed to. This and the Russia news station are the only ones that are interesting.

[faanunu]

Do you realize that by supporting Obama you are just garanteeing more bloodshed against Iran, Pakisatn and Iran? Obama and McCain have the same attitude but their policies are the same.

[Rebel4Life69]

Ralph Nader, a multimillionaire in rich people we trust!

[faanunu]

Ron Paul is endorsing Chuck Baldwin. This revolution will require that we all become leaders. Ron Paul is just the beginning... he is a true patriot. Where are you? It is time we step up to the plate. Join campaign for liberty! Look for it online.

[Rebel4Life69]

no.I don't believe in people that kisses the Vaticans ass like RON PAUL. I use to be a believer until I started digging for the truth.

Rebel4Life

[faanunu]

You should really look at ones actions. Don't judge a good man by what you think of his religion. If Ron Paul was in it for power, fame or money... he would run as a third party. Instead he promotes Chuck Baldwin for 08 and he started with his campaign for libery (to promote individual actions and knowlegde. He teaches no center for power... we all have to be patriots in the spirit of the founders.

[Rebel4Life69]

your votes don't count. Only a fool would believe it to be so. It's a distraction to what the real truth is. COMMON LAW :)

Rebel4Life

[faanunu]

Your vote might not count now but:

After the two missionaries were killed I was transferred to Chile. Chile had a brutal dictator Pinochet, he was notorious for his regimes brutality and its ability to make people disappear. He gained power through the actions of the CIA (its debated whether it was purposely or blowback of its actions). Pinochet held elections and always won. I have seen how people can win their freedom and take control of their government.

[faanunu]

There was no bloody revolution or revolt in Chile. There was no secret CIA movement. The Chileans persisted in an outcry for fair and honest elections. Pinochet agreed because partly he believed people loved him and that they also feared him. There was much fear among Chileans of retaliation when he would lose. There was talk of a possible civil war because everyone knew the dictator would not win if peoples vote truly counted.

[faanunu]

The people had the courage to vote their conscience to elect a President. There was a real fear that the dictator would not respect it and kill people but they had the courage to stand up. Complete freedom wasnt won over night... but gradually because of their persistence in their outcry for freedom. Pinochet gave up the Presidency and eventually the military and fled the country.

[longlivetheloud2]

Indeed. "It is enough that they know there was an election. Those who cast the votes decide nothing. Those who count the votes decide everthing."-Joseph Stalin.

[S6Mezzo]

Except for CSPAN, every network in the nation simultaneously IGNORED this event. It's a media blackout, and that's unconstitutional. US airwaves belong to the US people. But AlJazeera ran it!

[xlioilx]

why do people think its only 700billion its 900billion and could go higher if needed just because they called it the 700billion dollar bail out doesn't account for all the other shit they shoved in the fine print in the bill

[opAir01]

a sorry doesnt equal to 700 billion dollars.

pual is a sorry ass treasurer if he can only say sorry.

Al Jazeera English thank you for what 'our' MSM (old media) will not give us.

Russia Today too

Press TV too

[josejloayza]

INMENSOS EGRESOS ADICIONALES SE PRODUCEN para pagar a BANCOS HIPOTECARIOS.

Si el índice se mantenía sin cambios, esta ola de egresos nunca se hubiera producido, y Bancos Matrices se hubieran recapitalizados con otros negocios.

Sumando egresos tanto de los POCOS DUEÑOS DEL PETROLEO, como de CLIENTES hipotecarios, tiemblan los BANCOS MATRICES, que restringe sus egresos, obligando a clientes hipotecarios a NO PAGAR sus HIPOTECAS. Y el EFECTO DOMINO se produce.

[bar730]

So now American champions communism and Russia champions freedom....Pretty ironic when you think about it really.The people get the government they deserve.I wonder if the Obama and McCain supporters will still be fighting all the way to the camps?

[zutroy1]

"Russia champions freedom"

Are you serious?

Russia? Seriously?

Did you do that hard-hitting data research on these text comment forums?

Just wow ...

[bar730]

My bad zutroy I have a few pages pulled up.I typed that comment in the wrong video.Yes it does seem like an outrageous statement out of context.Please forgive...peace:)

[phonixwk69]

The economy is going to collapse in a few months....its too late!

[Type59]

Is it time to panic. Yes it is.

[teemuruskeepaa]

1.14 he didn't come close to apologizing. That just the way he talks, with a little stuttering. Al Jazeera is lying and trying to distort the reality as to make scapegoats of some civil workers, as to incorporate the critisism towards the free market system and support it through it's difficulties.

[Irtidad]

Al-Jazeera is pretty consistently pro-capitalist.

[mengwise36]

True.

[QuasiEvilScott]

That giant inflatable pig might not be part of the protest, this is New York after all. He might have just been there to check on his stocks. Or maybe he's just a local and noticed the hub-bub.

:p

[cdahl24]

We need to get rid of the cancer the federal reserve. Abe Lincoln tried with his greenbacks and JFK tried with his silver notes. Are national debt had been paid off a few times in history also, James swan on July 9 1795 did with his own money and Andrew Jackson did with government money.

[MasterMark123]

White collar crime is invisible to the American court system .. The higher up you get in American corporation the less chance you will be tried in court for many criminal acts that the rest of us would suffer under. This includes the Bush admn

[GiovannaNYC]

The bailout will not save the economy.

[redtree999]

Hey "trade abortion", sorry..tradernorton, money can't buy you anything worth keeping, and you certainly can't take it with you when you die so lonely, screaming with your eyes wide open:)

[FRTothus]

Nader will have my vote come election day. Enough with socialism for the rich, and free market discipline for the rest of us.

[jklasdfjdfksl]

the correct term for "socialism for the rich", is fascism. when the government intervenes on behalf of the capitalist/owning class, it cannot be socialism. the term, and many others, like "communist" or "terrorist" have no genuine meaning in US media, the terms are just used to demonize official enemies and mischaractarize other actions into terms more comfortable.

[jklasdfjdfksl]

associating the bailout with socialism has a negative impact on how people perceive that word and anything associated with it; this is because people do not like the bailout and thus are likely to develop bad feelings about anything associated with it. when the media starts calling it "socialism" over and over again, people begin to have negative ideas about "socialism" as it is defined by the media (as any state intervention). people become less likely to look to political power for help.

[jklasdfjdfksl]

the media is essentially saying: if you do not like the bailout, you do not like socialism, because they are the same thing. this is a manipulation of terms in order to confuse the class consciousness re-emerging in the US. this consciousness turning into political action would be very bad for media owners and the people being bailed out. in a way, this is discouraging people from taking political action through the government with propaganda saying: things like the bailout will be the result

[jklasdfjdfksl]

this effort is done through effective propaganda techniques, like continued repetition of terms. it works at what could be called a "subconscious level" for the people who are exposed to mass media and hear the information over and over again. people may not have know what is happening at the front of their brains, but none the less their behavior is affected. people are more likely to think negatively of anything they hear about "socialism" in the future. leftist change is less likely then.

[jklasdfjdfksl]

calling the bailout "socialism" can also have a softening impact on the bailout action, as it is perceived by the public. it confuses understanding and hides what is really going on from the public. the public understands private capital power grabbing the government as "socialism", a term that really means something opposite. the media is able to avoid using more correct terminology, like "state capitalism" or "fascism", which are more ugly and more accurate ways to describe the bailout.

[jklasdfjdfksl]

by this way, the media deflects the blame for the bailout onto something that is ideologically opposite of the bases of power that are behind the bailout action (capital concentrations and their political advocates). "socialism" and its associations with leftist progress and working class power becomes the scapegoat in the subconscious, not the true source of the problem, which is the owning/capitalist class and their political advocates.

[FRTothus]

While you make very good points, I do not believe that the term "fascism" describes the method by which the public pays for the excesses of the wealthy, absorbing the risk, while the wealthy gain any profits there are to be had. Certainly, a properly working socialist state, as in Western Europe, spreads the risks as well as the benefits across the entire population. Perhaps you are correct to term the US practice as State Capitalism, but I don't think that captures it either. Respect!

[jklasdfjdfksl]

i dont think "fascism" is a perfect term to use to describe it, but this is much closer to what is actually happening then calling it socialism. "state capitalism" is more accurate. to simplify things; socialism is state political power being used for the working class and downtrodden, while fascism is the state being used to service and increase profits of big business. the elements of the bailout are closer to fascism than socialism.

[ArcticSlicer]

Fascism is the correct term, consider the following:

"Fascism should rightly be called corporatism as it is a merger of government and corporate power."

--Benito Mussolini

"The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to the point where it becomes stronger than their democratic State itself. That, in its essence, is Fascism -- ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or by any controlling private power."

--Franklin Delano Roosevelt

[SubmarinerAndroid]

Thanks to Al Jazeera for covering this event which I never would have known about otherwise.

[onlyonedeb2000]

Ralph Nader all the way. The only way we can get these suit thugs where they need to be,off our damn streets is to vote for the one's standing behind the people. Ralph Nader is standing with the people. All we have to do is make the right choices. Nader 08

[mengwise36]

Let me first say I will vote for Nader if he made it to the VA ballot.

However, the only way to replace the two party system is at the grass root level and not a presidential run every 4 years.

[onlyonedeb2000]

I wasn't talking about just the President we need to clean house. A lot of them must go. We need people who are ready to start putting America back together. I'm glad he didn't give up shows me he doesn't say one thing and do another. I was glad to hear you would vote for him he has alot of good ideas on this bail out and war and this patriot act. Like Americans don't know how to act in a crisis weve been through 8 yrs with Bush and his suit thugs. I think we held up pretty good.

[mengwise36]

Exactly. But how do you clean house? You need Representatives and Congress person who are from neither the Democratic party nor the Republican party. And that is what I can grass root.

And any third party who wants to win over the nation must have a set of policies that will work at the local level and not just at national level or international level.

[rataMacue22]

Fuck Paulson. Should be in jail with all the other financial and political crooks getting ass raped by Bubba.

Freedom is participation if power, if your representatives fail to allow you to participate then you are not free. Go to the ni4d*dot*us site now and vote now to give the American people real power that we may check and balance the current system.

[RIPFILMS]

scary times we live in, keep up the good work!

[Congest]

The only solution is world socialist revolution.

[VascoPolonia]

Socialism is even worse. Many tried, but all failed. The only hope is the global replacement of industrial capitalism by the personalized economy.

[mengwise36]

Most European countries has socialist elements. The greatness of USA was built on socialist ideals. The greatness of the German Empire before WWI was built on socialist ideals.
