Lynne Tilton: "I Believe There Will Very Well Be Violence In The Streets In America"

Private equity maven Lynn Tilton warned NYMag that if the U.S. doesn't create more jobs, there will be violent upheaval.

“The truth is, I believe that there will very well be violence in the streets in America."

“It’s my great fear. And I think the only thing we can do to stop it is by creating employment. Social unrest comes from people who can’t take care of themselves. If we become a populace of the permanently unemployed, and Wall Street keeps going up, and multinational corporations keep making money, but Americans are unable to work and take care of their families, there is going to be social unrest.”

“I believe I have been chosen for this moment, where I can make a difference.”

Tilton has already laid out an extensive plan for how she would create jobs and fix the economy. But "not once" has President Obama asked to hear her thoughts, she told the magazine, which recently profiled her.

The President is listening however. Tilton belives Obama lifted excerpts from her articles.

“I mean actually lifting pieces."

“Literally, I can give you paragraphs. I got like twenty e-mails after his speech, when he was like, ‘We need to be innovators and the makers of things.’ ”

One woman who has seen her talk offers a catty explanation:

"You know, nobody likes seeing too much boob.”

She appears to have great bridge work.

Do you have any photos of her in a thong?

(Just kidding)

"You know, nobody likes seeing too much boob.”

I'd guess the vast majority of men would disagree.

Hey, maybe we could build our very own Autobahn. I mean, it worked for Hitler.

She’s right, of course. And as Gerald Celente said, “When people lose everything and have nothing left to lose, they lose it.” That is why the government kept increasing the unemployment compensation period. And in an entitlement culture, you can believe people will be rioting and looting downtown areas and malls to get what is “rightfully theirs” when the checks stop. Especially those on welfare. Think Rodney King Watts riots, only bigger and nationwide.

Nah. Bread and circuses are doing well so the people are happy. Rioters need a quick catalyst like the Rodney King decision to riot. General malaise just doesn’t flip their switch.

Lynne Tilton is, of course, correct. Historically this sort of thing leads to bad ends, like Hitler, Lenin, Stalin, Mao, etc. ad nauseam. Demagogic dictators.

“You know, nobody likes seeing too much boob.”

It depends on the boobs. The woman making the remark was probably jealous that nobody's interested in HERS.

I’m anxious to see what happens on April 15th when a lot of people that were on unemployment all or most of the year, with no withholding taken out, find themselves broke but STILL owing uncle Sam THOUSANDS of dollars. It won’t be pretty.

There is no such thing as too much boob.

She took her dental inspiration from the character, Rocky, from the series “Bullwinkle”. Most of we Freepers have been storing Guns, ammo, silver, and food for a good while. From what rock did this woman crawl out under?

General malaise has been around since Clinton. Perhaps we are now entering the discussion among ourselves phase. Discussion as to what to do. Typically the discussion phase is followed by the explosion, a decision is reached and the bankrupt "leadership" class is violently cast out. Watch for "the great silence" the final sign. So goes Western man.
