Somebody was prepared for this move. All it took was a "trigger" event.

And no one ever investigated as to why we had the trigger event last September.

This "event" was obviously planned, and similar to 9/11, succeeded far beyond the initial design of the perpetrators.

During the whole bailout madness, all I could think of Mel Brooks in Blazing Saddles: "Gentlemen, we have to save our phoney baloney jobs! Harumph!Harumph! Harumph! Hey, I didn't get a harumph outta that guy!"

Washington needs a huge reset button.

LOL. About right. I was just checking my notes on passage of various bailouts, and pretty much all I could think of was that whatever these dolts do, someday the whole mess IS going to collapse.

The system is beyond "reasoned dialog." I quit wasting energy in communication with the government. "Congress is utterly indifferent as to public sentiment, and holds the public in disdain."
