CRIME PAYS

Sub-Prime Crime : An Economic 9-11 ?

The audio track was concocted within a week of the events but life being what happens while you are busy making other plans, I never got to whip up the video & eventually though it was passé & kinda forgot about it.

But just like 9-11 changed everything, the subprime crime spree created havoc on the economy & keep on giving. After the illegal push for subprime deals Spitzer tried to halt, Wall Street upped the ante & sold these fraudulent turds for triple A gold investment to the unspected international finance community causing a worldwide catastrophe.

As with the horrifying 8 years of abuse inflicted on America by the crime cartel we so-called the Bush executive branch, some brave souls tried to warn us to no avail.

This is the story of some of those patriots who where mostly ignored, ridiculed or got their ass served by the GOPs Rove bots army.

And to show them our eternal gratitude, we will, although under the gun & placed in front of a 'fait accompli', we are giving them the rest of our money & our children's & future generations too

BRAVO !

"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and he carries his banners openly. But the traitor moves among those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not traitor, he speaks in the accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their garments, and he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of a city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to be feared." - Cicero, 42 B.C.

As for putting the same guys that caused the problem in place to organize the rescue

"I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. Already they have raised up a monied aristocracy that has set the government at defiance. The issuing power of money should be taken away from the banks and restored to the people to whom it properly belongs." -- President Thomas Jefferson

"It is well that the people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning." - Henry Ford

A banker is a man who loans you umbrellas when the sun is shining and demands it back the moment it looks like rain." - Mark Twain

"Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it everywhere, diagnosing it incorrectly and applying the wrong remedies." - Groucho Marx

Marxism we all can believe in ;)

CITIZENS 2.0 : PLAYERS NOT CHEERLEADERS !

STOP JUDGING POLITICIANS ON WHAT THEY SAY BUT ON WHAT THEY DO !

Politics, it seems to me, for years, or all too long, has been concerned with right or left instead of right or wrong. - Richard Armour
We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them. - Albert Einstein

I do not have the background to verify all listed bad games. Anyway 2:15 Lady Liberty with an alien in her face is perfect and speeks volumes.

As if the bank bailouts weren't proof enough that Wall Street owned Congress. History will likely show that these bailouts involved the largest transfer of wealth ever - from the working class to that small group of billionaires who own the corporations.

This fact is recognized by most people now and is such common knowledge that even the mainstream media feels comfortable discussing it...matter-of-factly.
