  • rofl! tell da truth! They funded your campaign liar! Do something more than "shame on you" then we might get the fuck out of this mess!

  • prove it

  • lol, he's like "yeah he's still talkin, it'll be another 45 minutes at least before i get outta here"

  • If the banks were being held fully accountable the federal government would let them fail like they should in a free market economy. But I guess if happen to like socialism...

  • The FED, acting as bartender, gives out free booze to the bankers

    The banks in turn have created many fake instruments like derivatives

    One quadrillion dollars is the sum of outstanding fake derivatives (fake money pledged by the wealthy banks to buy real things) 1,000,000,000,000,000 on the market, (e.g. a bank with only one real dollar can legally say it owns several billions of real dollars) The total combined assets of the world is only actually a very small fraction of that sum!

  • No, he's just checking his Facebook page!

  • Is Joe Biden texting?

  • Yeah right, I'll believe it when I see it, the banks run this country not the gov't
