Apart from the ridiculous beheading rhetoric. Why haven’t some of the culprits in the banking scheme been prosecuted?

I am pro-business, but it seems like if you steal $10,000 you would get 20 years in jail. You steal 10 Billion, you get a bail-out. You can’t steal/syphon/whatever that much taxpayer money without any recourse. Wait, I guess you can..

RE: I am pro-business, but it seems like if you steal $10,000 you would get 20 years in jail. You steal 10 Billion, you get a bail-out.

And if you waste a trillion and cause the economy to melt down further taking the livelihood of millions in the process, what does that make you? (BTW, the 20 year sentence for a $10,000 theft is an exagerration. I know some people who stole more than that and were out within a year and a half for good behavior ).

Great question, very important to understand so that we can find a way forward.

They have not been prosecuted because they are the creators of money under the post-1913 system. Prior to 1933, or 1964 if you prefer, there were competing sources of money. Now, there are none. Credit functions as our money (of course it is not real money).

Everything and everyone depends on the banksters keeping the game going. Dethgroning the banksters is going to be painful - perhaps very painful.

So, they get a free pass.

Tell me, what laws have been broken? No one has been prosecuted because NO LAWS WERE BROKEN! Take it up with Congress!
