What if the rich can save all their second homes and their investment properties, but nobody can save their first home, their residence? Isn’t that insane?

When the rich come yelling to Congress about losing their properties, then I guess we’ll see Congress stand at attention and take their marching orders.

every dollar more you pay for pharmacuticals – because of new IP legislation,

every dollar more you pay on credit card debt – because there are no limits on usury,

every dollar more you pay for gasoline – because of unregulated hedge speculation,

– Is in effect, a form of – UNREGULATED TAXATION – put upon the American people at the whim and exclusive benefit to the financial elite. Every time the government ignores its duty to regulate financial intercourse in the name of small government and low taxes, it is simply turning that function and ability over to someone else, who are more than willing to take up the slack. Every time the government ignores its duty to regulate financial intercourse in the name of small government and low taxes, it also removes transparency, accountability, representation, and possible recourse in lieu of what is paid out.

Every time the government ignores its duty to regulate the financial intercourse in the name of small government and low taxes – we get screwed.

Why doesn’t this also apply to banksters? Why are WE giving them trillions of dollars? Why aren’t they living up to their own responsibilities? Why are they abandoning foreclosure proceedings against homeowners in areas like Detroit where houses are worthless, tossing the bills and the interest and the fines and penalties back on homeowners who couldn’t afford to make the payments on the homes in the first place. Because its less costly to the banksters in the long run to not live up to their obligations.

So why is it supposed to be different for individuals? Hey, individuals need to do the moral thing and live up to their contracts, but as far as banks, its just business as usual – you know, morality is for PEOPLE, not for corporations – corp’s are just about money, not morality – that’s just how it is, don’t you know that.

Somehow I think more and more formerly moral individuals are not going to agree with the banksters on this one.

Liars, every f*cking one of them.

Who do they think will buy the houses and the stock, if we’re all unemployed or in minimum-wage or part-time jobs? There aren’t that many people with spare money out there any more, and they all have houses and stock accounts already.
