micdundee: "the final act of every government is to loot its own nation" Well said... and you did it with just 12 words ! Brevity was never my strong suit. The Bushites have arrived at a very important crossroad: They have less than two years before the next Presidential Election. ...and they face a poweful conundrum: Keep raping the US Citizenry with debt, deficits and fiat while stuffing their and their cronies pockets with massive energy & military industrial complex profits... or, raid Social Security -- where the really Big Money still sits. The Investment Bankers like Goldman with the worlds largest energy derivatives trading unit have profited greatly...but, those profits pale in comparison to the decades of unimaginable profits that they'll get their hooks into -- if and when Social Security get's offloaded and pumped into the US Stock Market. [...just in time for Wall Street to exit under the collapse of the doubling of US Debt & Deficits by Bush] The Bushites can't have it both ways... Time is running out: Left the air out of the great Energy & Commodities Bubble...and guide the economy into a soft landing and then give it a "V-bounce" recovery with Bernanke ultimately slashing interest rates once again -- just in time for the 2008 Presidential Election....or, realize it's already too late and keep raping & pillaging the masses as fast as they can ? Choices...choices...choices...
