C.O., the bankers may not be our friends, but they can't possibly be more money grubbing and malicious than the predominant political party has been.

Look at IMF loans to the thurd whirled. The bankers negotiate those loans at high interest rates "because of the risk of default." They knowingly put the cash in the hands of corrupt governments. Then they come to US taxpayers to bail them out when the money is gone. What risk? Meanwhile, they haven't done a damned thing about the corruption or the rule of law.

I'm not so sanguine. Look at who those bankers are. Rockefeller? Chase? Morgan? Consider how much money was flushed via wildly inflated prospecti during the dot bomb. Why are you so trusting?

"Why are you so trusting?"

I'm not "trusting," or promoting their role! I'm just comparing their averice to that of the Democrats in power!!!

I ask you... Which is the lesser evil??? Would you trust continued Dem control over greedy/risk averse banker control???
