Kerry,

The system was semi-rigged before this debacle and now that people are calling for permanent expanded powers for the Fed, it's going to get worse. The very fact that the Fed is now providing liquidity to brokerage houses says it all. That will expand moral hazzard (no one has to worry about counter party failure anymore so why not get even more reckless) and give Wall St. the means to transfer even more wealth to itself while sending the bill to America.

I consider the power brokers on Wall St., at the Fed, and at the Treasury etc.. to be intrinsically evil human beings and my personal enemies (and the enemies of most Americans - even though most don't know or understand that).

I don't say that lightly.

There's a small part of me that is hoping that in my lifetime some young people with the understanding and courage to do the right thing make the sacrifice necessary, step forward, and do what has to be done to stop these people from raping and pillaging this country further. I'll leave to your imagination what I believe needs to be done to stop them. I am too old, value my life too much, and don't have the courage to be part of it. But I want to live long enough to see it.
