Right...the terrorists are greedy unscrupulous mortgage lenders, banks and brokers right here at home. This is hardly a "foreign terror" manipulation, but it doesn't surprise me that this administration would like us to believe that it is. THEY are the terrorists.

The Investment bankers are the terrorists in this case! They could do this with the approval of the government so who is to blame? Its just capitalism in its purest form without any regulation! Now that the wallstreet is in deep shit there is a call for help...socialism for the rich!
And it is the same all over the world! This crisis is home made not by terrorists unless you want to call the people who own the USA terrorists! The crisis will be hard to handel and will call for actions like you have never seen before! Since the oil crisis in 1973 there have been more than 60 crisis but this one is different this one is causing real pain! For a long time! Foreign terror? For all the rest of the world this is Wallstreet made terrorism hot air products have caused this....

Do you know terrorists dealing in hot air? They are the people responsable and ask the FED about their role!!!

Of course it's being manipulated!

Wall Street 101

Once upon a time, in a village, a man appeared and announced to the
villagers that he would buy monkeys for $10 each.

The villagers, seeing that there were many monkeys around, went out to
the forest and started catching them. The man bought thousands at $10
and, as supply started to diminish, the villagers stopped their effort.
He further announced that he would now buy at $20 for a monkey.

This renewed the efforts of the villagers and they started catching
monkeys again. Soon the supply diminished even further and people
started going back to their farms. The offer increased to $25 each, and
the supply of monkeys became so small that it was an effort to even find
a monkey, let alone catch it!

The man now announced that he would buy monkeys at $50! However, since
he had to go to the city on some business, his assistant would now buy
on behalf of him.

In the absence of the man, the assistant told the villagers, "Look at
all these monkeys in the big cage that the man has collected.
I will sell them to you at $35, and when the man returns from the
city, you can sell them to him for $50 each."

The villagers rounded up all their savings and bought all the monkeys.

They never saw the man nor his assistant again, only monkeys everywhere!

Now you have a better understanding of how Wall Street works.

Marion; Only now will most people believe the fact: That Wall Street doesn't work at all!!!

It has died, and doesn't even know it yet, but there is always hope for a brighter tomorrow.

The bailouts just borrow us some more time, but there will be a debt to pay.

All roads lead to Hyper-Inflation!

Oh, please ! We know who's manipulating the economy, and it's not the Islamic bogeymen ! Nice try, Wall Street. No doubt some semi-educated folks will believe this.

Stay tuuuned, and don't touch that dial, next week the next exciting episode -- Yeah it's an 'episode' all right. I don't want to see the conclusion of this one!

Welcome to the new world order. Hey maybe its the hedge funds that are funded by drug cartels to lander their money. Or ( I just finished watching the X Files) it just might be the people in homeland security. Or... No one wants to leave their money in the stocks over night because you never know when the SEC will change the rules and what bank or company the International monetary fund (THE FED) will buy into next.

The Arizona Credit Union System would be very delighted to have the payday advance companies wiped off the surface of the Grand Canyon State. The credit union is working up their recruiting efforts to destroy the competition and assemble all the former cash advance customers within their holdings. System will persuade voters to turn down Proposition 200 through an immense E-mail campaign that is estimate to reach as many as 1.6 million credit union customers. On the other hand, the same Proposition supports organizations such as the Arizona Community Financial Services Association that declare that this will for sure lower state loan fees, introduce flexible payment plans to eliminate extensions and reduce the number of walk-in stores in the state. These improvements will help payday loan customers and keep industry employees off the edge. Who wants to be unemployed especially in our current economy?

Is it just me or anyone else finds it very weird that this financial crisis emerged just before the American presidential election?

And why, all of the sudden, have they only now 'noticed' things were going down the drain?
I mean, shouldn't they see what was coming and do something about it?
What kind of stupid people are these who couldn't even realise this kind of situation was bound to happen? And these are the ones who control the financial 'world'?

I find everything very suspicious! Either they are the dumbest people on the planet for not see this coming or they are profiting immensely from this alleged crisis!!

And as always it's the main street that cleans up after them! If this is such an economic catastrophe, why hasn't anyone been held accountable? Why aren't they in jail already? As far as I know, no particular individuals were brought to justice!!

We are such zombies!! They play us like puppets and we let them!

How long will it take for people to wake up from this global slumber and react?

The God That Failed: The 30-Year Lie of the Market Cult

Perhaps the most striking fact revealed by the global financial crash -- or rather, by the reaction to it -- is the staggering, astonishing, gargantuan amount of money that the governments of the world have at their command.

In just a matter of days, we have seen literally trillions of dollars offered to the financial services sector by national treasuries and central banks across the globe. Britain alone has put $1 trillion at the disposal of the bankers, traders, lenders and speculators; and this has been surpassed by the total package of public money that Washington is shoveling into the financial furnaces of Wall Street and the banks. These radical efforts are being replicated on a slightly smaller scale in France, Germany, Italy, Russia and many other countries.

The effectiveness of this unprecedented transfer of wealth from ordinary citizens to the top tiers of the business world remains to be seen. It will certainly insulate the very rich from the consequences of their own greed and folly and fraud; but it is not at all clear how much these measures will shield the vast majority of people from the catastrophe that has been visited upon them by the elite.

But putting aside for a moment the actual intent, details and results of the global bailout offers, it is their very extent that shocks, and shows -- in a stark, harsh, all-revealing light -- the brutal disdain with which the national governments of the world's "leading democracies" have treated their own citizens for decades.

Beginning with Margaret Thatcher's election in 1979, government after government -- and party after party -- fell to the onslaught of an extremist faith: the narrow, blinkered fundamentalism of the "Chicago School." Epitomized by its patron saint, Milton Friedman, the rigid doctrine held that an unregulated market would always "correct" itself, because its workings are based on entirely rational and quantifiable principles. This was of course an absurdly reductive and savagely ignorant view of history, money and human nature; but because it flattered the rich and powerful, offering an "intellectual" justification for rapacious greed and ever-widening economic and social inequality, it was adopted as holy writ by the elite and promulgated as public policy.

This radical cult -- a kind of Bolshevism from above -- took its strongest hold in the United States and Britain, and was then imposed on many weaker nations through the IMF-led "Washington Consensus" (more aptly named by Naomi Klein as the "Shock Doctrine"), with devastating and deadly results. (As in Yeltsin's Russia, for example, where life expectancy dropped precipitously and millions of people died premature deaths from poverty, illness, and despair.)read the rest at

No Cid, it's not "just you" ... it's the Bu$h admini$tation'$ one la$t attempt to empty the U$ Trea$ury and cripple the next president.

Remember $ilverado? The biggest bank robbery in history ... it happened under Poppy Bu$h ... and his $on$ got way with it ...

Blue is right: this was a controlled demolition to collapse the economy. Rather than protect the country and its citizenry these past 8 years, the Bushies have put all their time into robbing us blind and feeding the coffers of the central banks and big business. In that case, Bush's legacy has been a big success.
