max, one correction. i believe the insiders will do what they think is best for themselves in terms of wealth and control.

if that means the market goes up... they try that.

if it means the market goes down... they try that.

being insiders and controlling the media, they are pretty good at getting what they want, but not perfect.

i guess we may differ in that i can see them eventually thinking that crashing the markets would be in their self interest and you don't.

my thought process is that a strong middle class isn't prone to being controlled - and we have a government that is systematically exerting more and more control over society.

the enemy belligerent act is simply chilling - secret state kidnapping, dungeons and torture of american citizens legalized. the only way out is for a full session of congress to vote someone free.

if they intend to dismantle the american middle class, the market likely has to fall a lot. of course, they will scape goat someone or something else. perhaps a real terror plot shocks our debt riddled economy. perhaps they set up a false flag attack again. perhaps they blame a country for something and start a war.

these people have the government between them and the people. the people who see through their facade are being demonized in the press - so others won't take them seriously.

the military is training for gun confiscation - and their katrina dry run went off like a charm.

i hope you are right and the people stand up to these people - b/c i simply don't see it happening. tyrants rising to power over naive citizenries is the rule - and the one exception has been systematically dismantled for some time.

the founding fathers would cry profound tears if they their creation today.

i hope you are right, though. i like the idea of these people on the run instead of their boot on our necks.
