Slightly off the point, but I am still waiting for the Right Wing press to investigate that collapse and especially its timing. All the components were in place from many left-controlled institutions, all the oversight organizations either ignored or hid them, then BOOM, just in time for the election. I think the collapse got away from its creators (got too big) but it achieved its purpose.
I have yet to see a reasoned investigation.
Boy no kidding. There was a youtube video of some congress type talking about a HUGE withdrawal of cash from the federal reserve back in September. Who did that? No answers. And the story died. And the timing is very suspect, just before the election to scare the crap out of everyone and get them to vote for the party not in power at the time. This whole financial mess was created by dodd and frank on order to win an election. Now that they got this forest fire started, they cannot control it or put it out. So, now they are flailing about trying to put more and more controls on the American people. I think the reason is that they are trying to set the table for their own political survivability if the donkey poop really hits the fan. I couldn’t have believed that states would be serious about seccession prior to this past year. This whole situation is going to get a lot uglier.
