 Some crazy facts about bankers, and their grossly corrupt political and legal profession supporters ...
by W. Finnerty Thu Jan 26, 2012 18:00

"The scandal involves employees (of 5 major banks) signing names not their own, under titles they did not really have, attesting to the veracity of documents they had not really reviewed. Investigation reveals that it did not just happen occasionally but was an industry-wide practice, dating back to the late 1990s; and that it may have clouded the titles of millions of homes."

"The crazy facts are these: bankers now borrow from their customers and from taxpayers. They are effectively draining funds from household bank accounts, small businesses, corporations, government Treasuries and from e.g. the Federal Reserve. They do so by charging high rates of interest and fees; by demanding early repayment of loans; by illegally foreclosing on homeowners, and by appropriating, and then speculating with trillions of dollars of taxpayer-backed resources."

"Interestingly, countries with strong public sector banking systems largely escaped the 2008 credit crisis. These include the BRIC countries--Brazil, Russia, India, and China--which contain 40% of the global population and are today's fastest growing economies. They escaped because their public sector banks do not need to rely on repos and securitizations to back their loans. The banks are owned and operated by the ultimate guarantor--the government itself. The public sector banking model deserves further study."

The above excerpts (in this section) are from an Article dated January 26th, 2012 by Ellen Brown (United States Lawyer and Book Author).

 Our "Goody Good" Government:

"It's interesting to note that, right on the heels of yesterday's --1.25bn bailout to the Anglo Irish Bank Bondholders (whoever they are?), which I believe was 100% unconstitutional (and consequently 100% unlawful), our child-like Government (Executive, Legislative, and Judicial) is getting top grades from their continental masters; and, appropriately enough (it also appears to me), that this piece of "good news" is being delivered by the very well-oiled and well-heeled "Establishment Media Engine" of The Irish Times."
