What a piece of shit.

[aharidop]

this is one long commercial to make this snake in the grass appear to be a humanitarian. watch his performance in inside job. he is one of the people who was responsible for the financial meltdown in '08 and the suffering that people experienced, though he wouldn't even discuss it. he tries to hide his business ties. this is an attempt to repair his reputation. he has no concern for the working poor in this country and supported the transfer of wealthy to the already wealthy

Most of those “foreign aid” is to assure that companies from the donors’ countries get into the local market, a sort of extra advantages, at the expense of the already existing local business.

@thomascapitalmgt Dear A S S M O N K E Y, thank you for you comments.. Hubbard is a complete moron that gave us the 2006 meltdown. Oh ignore he was on Goldmans payroll when he betrayed America, ignore he has dumbed down tons of economics students selling his Bush tax cuts. See Inside Job and what that creep writhe!

@thomascapitalmgt The U.S spends twice as much as other developed countries on health care, while leaving 50 million people without any coverage, resulting in the premature death of 45,000 people a year. Tens of millions more people are sicker because they don't get the care they need; many people suffer under crushing medical debt.

@thomascapitalmgt Rep. Paul Ryan's Republican budget proposals in April, some form of which we may be debating until next year's election and beyond, would extend that bleak picture to the 43 million Americans who rely on Medicare. Ryan's plan would double out-of-pocket costs to seniors over the coming decade -- while enriching private insurance companies. The House Republican budget plan also sought to ration care by capping federal spending on the 69 million seniors.

@thomascapitalmgt Why don't you just suck his Neo-Liberal Cock(Hubbard). Obama is a Neo-Liberal and has continued Jrs tax policies. Summers,Sperling and Giethner are as Neo-Liberal as The bald headed Cock(Uncle Milton) So what the fuck are you pissed about? The Bretton Woods agreements have been repealed for 40 years. Obama and his economic team, are on your side. Obama is actually your "Lover" so suck on Barack's Neo-Liberal Cock. Under pricing of systemic risk.

@thomascapitalmgt Uncle Miltie refused to debate Noam Chomsky, who would have made Uncle miltie look like the bald headed prick that he was, and will always be. Free markets never work, only for corporate America. I have no insurance!!! 50 million other people don't either. Hubbard is a filth scum of the earth. i am for Capitalism, the Bretton Woods agreements, which were based on Keynes which worked. The Bald headed Cock(Miltie) was and will always be an abomination Snake in the grass.
