Why doesn't our baldy Mr. Paulson come to us and say, ‘My fellow- Americans. Here is a real chance for you. Those bastards (here come the names) are in trouble. We are in charge. They want us to guarantee their bad loans. Let’s use that money we have as a bait. Let’s say we have a pool of money and open a bid. Every bastard, fat cat, investing king who does not want to go belly-up should come to us, open the damned books and plead his case. And we, your dogs will be merciless demanding restructuring, accountability and huge interests. And we would be bad, real bad. And it all will be open to the public so that people will see where the money goes and how. And we will guarantee that all the profits and proceeds of that will go to the alternative energy and infrastructure for 10 upcoming years. And we will go for those predators who will use an opportunity to stifle the credit system and we will hang them high.’
You know why Mr. P. will never do anything like that? Because he serves not us. He serves them. And he is a spokesman for extortionists, nothing more.
But why would I say that? Because when you have a trillion dollar war on your hands you do not say that the economy is strong. That is called Human Coprophagia, a deliberate madness stage and no Gardisil can help here. Not a chance.
Watch your Godfather III. In it Lucesi says ,’Finance is a gun. Politics is a guide when to pull the trigger.’ Wise man he was before he was killed by his own glasses. We better think why the bastards whose names we do not know send to us Steven Perlstein, the financial guru on CNN with the most bizarre explanation, ’People just do not understand. Most of those so- called bad mortgages are financially sound. Only 10% or so are bad. The reason that the people on the market do not want to buy those is fear.. People are irrational.’
Whew! So private investors are all irrational nutcases? And we, poor saps thought otherwise. We thought they were financially savvy. We thought that if only we gave them all our money and privatize everything from schools to Social Security like our beloved Dubya wants we would have Paradize. We privatized the Iraq war and THE SURGE WORKED! I just got a message from one coprophag on the Opednews- THE SURGE WORKED. Eat your shit; he surely likes it. That is after that trillion was spent, of course. And nearly one million dead.
Hey, that’s the answer to the question WHY! They watched our spending and loved it. If we could spend uncontrollably, unbelievably, unaccountably and un.. whatever a trillion dollars in Iraq it would be only prudent to take more from us and…. distribute it wisely between themselves. It is exactly how Lee Iacocca described it in his book Where Had All the Leaders Gone? You see someone unbelievably greedy (Haliburton and Cheney) having a free ride and you feel.. bad. You want a piece of a pie. Back to the Godfather III, ‘The Commission wants to wet their beaks too..’ And they were all killed, poor saps by the helicopter fire.
The Commission (banking industry) blackmailed us for two reasons: because they could and because it was the right time. They could because they saw the money coming from us steadily to all other thieves. It was the right time because they listened to McCain promising FDERAL MONEY to the FAITH- BASED organizations. That was the last straw: the thieves in finance would prefer that money to end in their pockets. And they went on strike. Hey, where is that Reagan approach? Or he could use it only against the air traffic controllers?
Deliberate madness starts with the perception that certain people actually mean what they say; like Dubya and his cronies are our servants. BTW they do not have to say that and they sometimes say the truth- that they serve their ‘base’ but we do not listen: we eat shit. Then, when we are infected we start making noises about ‘those bad CEOs’ and other ‘ irresponsible adults’ who screwed up and now want to get away with it. Hey, I’ll tell you who screwed up. We did. For 8 years we knowingly and willingly gave the money and power to the thieves and now new thieves come out to wet their beaks and we lament. It is too late.
If we really want to do something we should take over and dictate that Congress follows our instructions: if that money is ours- we are in charge. No more surprises. We need a People’s Bank (not to mix with the one which is called that way now). It can be a part of the Federal Reserve if necessary. That bank should have our money and we, the people decide every cent of investment. It should be ruled by the independent economists appointed by GAO. I want Krugman and Rubin; Paulson has to go. And if someone stops to credit everyday people we seize that institution for not doing business. And BTW we should use an opportunity and start asking simple questions like how was that trillion dollars spent. I want the investigators to be rewarded by the % of the waste recovered. Hey, maybe we are irrational people after all: we want our money back. And last but not least: no cold cash to anyone- just IOUs. We don’t print money here: the release of 700 billion dollars in cash means inflation beyond belief- a financial catastrophe.
Boy, I feel rich. Just like Jim, a runaway slave.
