Re: Why?

I've explained the why already in the post he replied to: Message 33572130

You might as well be a serf on a feudal land and say, "I'm sick and tired of bailing out our lord every time he needs some money."

Wall St. is that quiet personal assistant to the emperor that not even the Grand Vizier dares to go against. It is the Darth Vader of our empire. You may think it is evil, but Vader served the real power and nobody but the rebels could go against him.

You can't have it both ways. Either lead a revolution or live with the reality of what is.

As I recall, everyone here objected Omarova's nomination Message 33551258 The ideology is so thoroughly ingrained into every American's brain that the thought of anyone rocking the boat is violently opposed by the very same masses who complain about the system.

As for me? I surf the waves by being aware of the ocean. I don't complain about stock valuations or or the Wall Street or tax laws or whatever... I play the game by understanding the system. I don't care about how the system is marketed to the masses, but what it really is.

I did not want the big banks and brokerage firms bailed out. I thought they should have been bankrupted, and the FDIC should have stepped in to do their job. If the Treasury needed to loan the FDIC some money to cover the obligations, so be it.

I also thought the GM and Chrysler bankruptcies were political, but there was no way they were not going to be that way with all that union power.

The connected elites disrupted the normal market processes, and in their actions, they made our markets less able to stand alone in the future. They also socialized risk, which is nonsense.

Hello Lee, You stated > Our society is seriously broken. No one is ever responsible for their own poor decisions anymore. Common sense is taboo. We have artificially low interest rates which is inflating an already overvalued market. Criminals are heroes while police are the bad guys. Boys are girls and vice versa. Yet socialists think this is all honky dory, they control the media and they're being successful in "programming" the country to accept it all.

While your points could be considered valid your last sentence where you assigned blame seems a bit questionable. Remember conservative media was telling us orange jesus was sent by God. Conservatives thought former guy was all honky dory and the conservative media was working in "programming" the country to accept it all. Plenty of work to be done on both sides me thinks.
