Rant by Jim Quinn (Transcript by Neil E. Wright. Any errors are mine. I have added emphasis where I think it is appropriate.)
"I want to talk more about the president's plan for the economy which will be unveiled tomorrow night. And as I've said a couple of times in this hour, I'm convinced now that its not stupidity. That its not just bold ideology. I'm convinced now that there is a global agenda to destroy the economy of the United States of America.
And the reason? Very simple. You cannot establish a socialist nation until you destroy something that is standing in your way. Now what is it that you think, stands in the way of socialism in America. A total socialist, collectivist, marxist take-over of our entire economic system. What stands in the way of that?
The answer, my friend, is YOU. YOU are what stands in the way. Since the Reagan Revolution began back in the early 1980's, and taxes were lowered, and regulations were lowered on Capitalism, Capitalism has flourished. Much, by the way, to the chagrin of the Soviet Union. That, and Star Wars, is what broke them. Because in the 1970's, the word was Capitalism is failing. No, Capitalism was being burdened by taxes and regulations and economic intervention of the Carter Administration, as is always happens, you know, economies tank when you do that.
What has the Reagan Revolution created? The 401K. Do you realize how many trillions of dollars are in the 401K's that you own? Even now. You've seen your 401K drop 35-40 percent, some of you even more. That's how they're going to impoverish you.
Because FREE PEOPLE, who own their own money are the biggest impediment to socializm that there is. And a large middle class, the size of which, and the wealth of which, no nation on the planet Earth has ever in history seen, has got to be destroyed. And they're in the process of destroying you RIGHT NOW. And everything this administration is doing is sending capital fleeing.
I no longer believe that they're this stupid. I think this is part of a plan. This is part of a plan to cut America off at the knees, to cut the middle class off at the knees, and to turn you into a bunch of scared and begging SUBJECTS, looking to the government for a solution to your condition, when it's the government that took it away.
I'll have more on this as the morning unfolds."
BREAK for other topics. Now, back to more of the Rant, during a phone call-in from a listener:
"..... Now, how much sense does it make, in an economic downturn, to scare capital away?"
I'm beginning to really believe that's true. I'm really beginning to believe, that the agenda here is to kill the wealth of the middle class, because the middle class in control of its own wealth, you saw what happened when Bush suggested that 2 percent of your social security payments ought to go to a private account you could manage yourself. It was like holding a cross in front of Dracula with these Democrats. The whole idea that you would be in control of ANY money that they wouldn't be in control of just sent them spinning into orbit.
And you're going to have to understand that about this party. This is not the party of Hubert Humphrey anymore. This is not the party of Zell Miller anymore. This is a socialist party filled with radical socialists. I've been warning you about them for years. Democratic Socialists of America, there's about 58 of them, Barbara Lee is one of the worst, she is probably the worst, and I'm telling you these people are about to visit ruin on this country, and all because they think its a good idea, because they hate wealth, they hate capital, they hate everything about this country. They were born and breed in the 1960's to hate it, and the 1970's, and now they're in charge of it"

Dont ASSUME anything is impossible and dont ASSUME that anything that sounds far-fetched isnt true?
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
My question is how can anyone consider anything too far fetched? Anyone who looks around at the current situation can just imagine it is January one 2008 and try to see what would have been the reaction if you had predicted all this. Ninety plus percent of the people would most likely have considered you stark raving mad. Your only chance for a sympathetic hearing would be from people who were known for being kooks.

Thank you for posting that. I think you’re on target.
I've been saying the same thing since the crash in September, to anyone who will listen. I think people have begun to see me as a nut. Conversely, my husband has had no problem telling anyone who will listen all manner of conspiracy theories for years. His friends are now saying "damn, you were right!"
Bump to steal.
Just a thought folks...
If Bank of America and Citigroup were to purchase their own stock, wouldn’t that shore up the value and encourage investors to buy in, thus elevating their stock?
I’d prefer that by far than having the government nationalize the firms and screw around with their bones.
If they are truly insolvent, then let them fail. But if they’re not insolvent and the stock price is all that is truly failing, then buoy up confidence by announcing you’ll buy up the stock at $10.00 or $20.00 per share.
It’s the lack of confidence in these firms that is driving down the stock value. And the negative comments by this administration isn’t helping.
Folks, we’re dealing with people who dearly hate corporations. I have a sinking feeling that this is an assault on the corporate entity as much as anything right now.
Neil, If given the chance, I would like to get in his face, and say what you wrote.
“Democratic Socialists of America, there’s about 58 of them,.....”
They are called “The Progressive Caucus”, and they reside primarily in the House of Representatives.

Why aren’t we hearing who was pulling all of the money round about 9/11-9/14 ?
I’d love to follow the money on this one.
Sorry but Bush’s stimulus bill does not come close to what this POS is doing.
This is nothing about stupidity. This is about tyranny
Lyndsey Graham, John McCain and I’m afraid as much as I loved the man most of the time even G W have helped sell us out.
It all expanded so fast under the new administration I can’t see a way out.
The Congressional (Mostly Senate) Republicans now decide to grow some after the damage has been done.
“Sorry but Bushs stimulus bill does not come close to what this POS is doing.”
True of course but doesn’t it seem to you that they could have both been working toward the same goal?
Maybe?
even possibly unknowingly?!
Some more for thought. I searched for this and couldn’t find here, so here goes.
This is really scary. The Rats are trying to cover every base they can conger up.
The RAT hiding deep inside the stimulus bill
By

The far-reaching and potentially dangerous provision that no one knows about.
Youve heard a lot about the astonishing spending in the $787 billion economic stimulus bill, signed into law this week by President Barack Obama. But you probably havent heard about a provision in the bill that threatens to politicize the way allegations of fraud and corruption are investigated or not investigated throughout the federal government.
The provision, which attracted virtually no attention in the debate
over the 1,073-page stimulus bill, creates something called the
Recovery Accountability and Transparency Board the RAT
Board, as its known by the few insiders who are aware of it. The
board would oversee the in-house watchdogs, known as inspectors
general, whose job is to independently investigate allegations of
wrongdoing at various federal agencies, without fear of
interference by political appointees or the White House.
In the name of accountability and transparency, Congress has
given the RAT Board the authority to ask that an inspector
general conduct or refrain from conducting an audit or
investigation.
If the inspector general doesnt want to follow the
wishes of the RAT Board, hell have to write a report explaining his
decision to the board, as well as to the head of his agency (from
whom he is supposedly independent) and to Congress. In the end,
a determined inspector general can probably get his way, but only
after jumping through bureaucratic hoops that will inevitably make
him hesitate to go forward.

Good Lord StemShovel,
Are there that many robots out there that listen and accept this crap!
NO
I’m afraid there are far too many who STILL don’t accept that this is a BIPARTISAN effort.
