Fool me once, shame on you.....
This news as the elites are now gathering in Davos for their annual meeting. The press continues to dutifully issue stories about Europe’s financial situation stabilizing and the US economy improving.

Or could it be the Europeans are creating an aura of good feeling so Bernanke will continue secretly printing dollars to bail out European banks thereby letting the European governments off the hook when their economic system crashes?
Not to worry. Timothy Geithner and Barack Obama are looking after the interests if the nation with John Boehner and Mitch McConnell keeping them honest. Give your hard earned money to Goldman Sachs to buy Eurobonds and sleep well knowing your government and industry leaders are hard at work on your behalf.
