Exhausted by outrage

Read this article in Rolling Stone (hat-tip to Robert Wenzel), about how the Federal Reserve gave money to America's foreign competitors, billionaires in tax havens and even the business-inexperienced wives of Wall Street dealers.

Then if you can stand it, read Matt Taibbi's article about how nobody important on Wall Street is going to get prosecuted for the misdeeds that blew up the Global Financial Crisis.

This can't be happening.

  1. When more of this comes out, they will start driving in armoured cars.

  2. This is happening and it's not unlike Nicholas Biddle in Jackson's time. Hopefully the people will chase the banksters to their homes and lay siege.

Say what you please, so long as it's phrased politely and is not libellous or legally proscribed. Fact, reason and wit are keenly welcomed.
