The Con of the Century would have been much more accurate. It is sad but definitely worth reading... I am not a conspiracy theorist but the whole bailout scheme reeks of conspiracy and George Soros making profits out of the whole mess really stinks.

Dumb question but I will go ahead. What would prevent the Fed from simply dumping the money into the stock market and becoming the major shareholder in each and every publicly traded company?

‘You are buying the country with money you borrowed from its taxpayers.’

Worse still, the People’s Republic of China is buying up the US in just this way.

In which low income people who got free houses by defaulting on mortgages they never should have qualified for are re-labeled “Power Elites” and held up as bogeymen for you to fear by means of a slight-of-hand trick performed by an idiot who didn’t himself know that’s what he was doing.

G W Bush laid the foundation for this, and executed the transition manuaver just prior to leaving office! IMHO

BUSH and NWO are kissing cousins IMHO

I'm not so sure, it's hard to top the Global Warming scam and the sales job in getting Obama elected president as some of the biggest of the last decade or more.

From the article: The police had mounted communications antennae on it [the Eiffel Tower] and therefore wanted it kept up. It was perhaps then the first cell tower.

Err, what? This guy needs to check his sources. The tower was built for the 1889 Universal Exhibition. That's a tad early for radio, or any kind of wireless.

Sounds like what HENRY F. POTTER did to the town, and tried to do to GEORGE BAILEY, in the movie 'It's a Wonderful Life'.

A second article is also available which completes the scheme.

I don’t know enough to make a meaningful comment but it does seem that something is wrong about what is going on.

The circle is now complete: in "saving our financial system," the public borrowed trillions and transferred the money to private Power Elites, who then buy the public debt with the money swindled out of the taxpayer. Then the taxpayers transfer more wealth every year to the Power Elites/Plutocracy in the form of interest on the Treasury debt.

Brilliant! The banks borrowed TARP money at 5% interest (plus warrants) so that they could buy 3 month T-Bills that currently pay 0.15% interest.

That's how they became the Power Elites/Plutocracy, by flunking out of math class. Moron.

The first paragraph says it all. Nice gig if you can get it. I wonder if any on the left, any supporters, read and grasp this and still think it's a good idea?

Soros...."give me what I want....and I'll make you President of the United States"

You sound like you hate capitalism and hate america first. Everyone at FreeRepublic knows debt is prosperity and a country is only free and prosperous if they can generate “money” out of thin air.

Everyone knows that you have to listen to the bankers because they are smarter and better than us.

I think I speak for everyone at FreeRepublic when I say we need to respect proper authority and show reverence for those in power who think they are smarter and better than us.
