the nazis went after the jews because they were a minority and everywhere close by, with the added bonus that they were sufficient in economic means to be financially attractive, unlike the gypsies, who were included because they were also a minority and everywhere close by, without the added economic attractions

and unless one is ready to claim that the germans as a culture are insane, which i am not prepared or justified to do as maurice mq would presumably be on his ethnic this and cb ilaine could be on her cultural that, then one must necessarily be ready for the possibility that what happened in the between 0 and 1900s in germany and enough other places to the jews can happen again to the jews and chinese and ... and ... and

I really do hope that you are right and my worst fears do not come true. I hope that the worst the mob does is go after the bankers. I am one of them and yet I think that is the best possible outcome of the many. Much worse case is they single out one or several minorities whether it be jews/chinese/indians/muslims/.....

Speculators are often deriled for economic problems but they did not cause the subprime crisis or AIG to fail or Lehman to go bankrupt. They may have shone a light on the problems but not caused them. I think we can agree now that citi stock is not 2 $ because of short sellers - it really would be zero if not for govt manipulators(authorities).
