If we could make a diagram of this “financial crises” and I am talking about starting with Freddie/Fannie...I think we will see, there is an entrance which connects somehow to Obamas Administration.....this is the new 6degree of separation....maybe even less than that. You would have to be naive to not see we have been played.

What is so frustrating is that it IS all laid out to see. Many have been connecting the proverbial dots for sometime now.

I don’t dispute we have been played. I am disputing whether it was a setup from the beginning, or whether clever people are taking advantage of a situation. I think it is the latter. We have been building up to a vulnerable economy for a long time: rampant credit to risky consumers, downgrading of moral principles of honesty and frugality, destruction of religious influences, welfare expansion with no expectation of leaving it, positing government as the solver of all problems. All this has left us with economic osteoporosis and we are seeing fractures.

We both agree radical treatment is immediately necessary, whatever the cause. We shall soon see how much this country deserves the freedom it has had and can still get again.
