Between Bernanke and Geithner, We're Doomed.

Just ran across both of these on Yahoo News:

Geithner gives some companies pass on new rules
finance.yahoo.com...

Bernanke calls for more lending to troubled areas

Basically, turn a blind eye while tossing more money into the economy.

SOS...Save Our Ship...We're Sinking.

The recession officially ended two years ago. Bernanke said the national economy is growing at a moderate pace and that job creation is gradually improving.

You gotta be kidding me. Does he really believe this? Actually, I doubt he does, but I'm sure 90% of the country believes this crap.

Just throwing more gas on the economic fire, it's gonna burn, burn, burn until there's nothing left to burn.

No one's gonna respond to our SOS, there's nothing they can do, anyways. We're a sinking ship that's also on fire, and the water is full of hungry sharks.

It's always great to be the king makers of fascism. For everyone else it sucks.

Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke on Friday called for more lending to people and small businesses in lower-income neighborhoods, saying they've been disproportionately hurt by the recession.

Yea just what smaller business and lower income people need...more debt.

Maybe small business and lower income neighborhoods should get the kind of massive lending and bailouts that were given out (near secretly) to international bankers. Trillions of dollars at 0.007% to 0% interest would go a looooong way.
