...and in this instance who could blame Obama for intervening? The bidders at these Treasury auctions are nothing more than greedy speculators who put their private interest above the public good.

Do you think if Obama would accuse foreign investors, such as China, of being greedy that they would take kindly to it? Like accepting lower interest rates so that 'the one' could continue out of control borrow/spend?

No! I didn't think so.

OK, well then American retirees who invest in Treasury bills are nothing but greedy speculators whose assets should be seized without recourse in a court of law.

Chinese purchasers of the notes are citizens of the world whose good deeds are countless and before whom we poor, miserable, unreformed former capitalists should prostrate ourselves in trembling gratitude that they have graciously consented to finance the One's remaking of society.
