Bonnie,
<<How's this for conspiracy theories?>>

Cool! I like it. Big banker, capitalist, zillionaire, circles of conspiring elitist, in true control, have been a favorite postulation of thriller writers for years. Almost as popular as reemergent nazis (another perennial bad guy in the genre). In the aftermath, when I go underground, I want to come back as leader of the revolutionist that reclaim the world for the average Joe. (Because I sure as hell don't figure on membership in the elite group).

In the meantime I am thinking of shorting Yahoo.

Best,
Stitch

Bonnie:

Looks like Ms. Born has a tiger by the tail. She is clearly on to something. The boys have a right to be scared. Bank's like Chase are stretched so thin on derivatives it's not funny. Although, the money center banks are currently the darlings of Wall Street I wouldn't give you a plug nickel for them. It is amusing, the attitude, "now go away little girl and play with your dollies and let the men handle it. We know best".

As for you conspiracy theory: I think it sounds very reasonable. The "smart" money is always long gone before the party is over letting the schmucks take the hindmost. The government has never controlled anything except the sheep. Politicians are merely the puppets of the money mills. It has always been so.

Regards,
Susan

PS: I was a banker myself in San Francisco for 10 years.
