But Obama is also at fault for his full throated support of Bernanke and Geithner. They are all idiots or at the very least bought and paid for by the financial industry.

Fed chairmen are always loved when the economy is good and always hated when it is bad. But I agree that they should have federalized and broken up the banks into parts. The core banking system should be something like Canada; stuffy, conservative, risk adverse.

I too expected Obama to be much more populist and less corporatist. He's a disappointment. But the other side... wow I think they're nuts.

I've been saying we need a 3rd party going on 15 years or something. A "Main Street" party. Something like the old cloth coat Republicans with a little more progressiveness. But probably can't get there from here. I think we're sunk. It's the Asian and emerging market decade, we better just get used to the wealth flowing out instead of in.
