Today's Must Read

filed under: Hey, What's The Big Idea

Seriously. Go read this now. It's long and its serious but it's deeply important.

The sub-prime mortgage crisis that has not only come so close to utterly destroying the markets, but has ruined the value of many people's homes and left millions with mortgages they can't pay, was also the outcome of the deregulation created by these men. The very predictable outcome. When taxpayers are left holding the bag for $1 trillion this time around, it's hard to believe it's any sort of accident.

This is enemy action. This is a bullet deliberately fired into the economy by men willing to exercise their ideology regardless of the cost to taxpayers. Men who have every expectation that they can plunder the system again and again, while the public picks up the tab.

You are about to get stuck with your share of a one TRILLION dollar tab for failed financial manipulation. You deserve to know how it happened, and which presidential candidate is in bed with the men who made it happen.
