Obama had a legitimate opportunity to say to the financial world, "enough" in 2008. He pledged he would. Instead he stocked his cabinet with Lehman and Goldman and Bear Stearns execs that pushed so hard for deregulation, shorted their own toxic mortgage products and created and profited off the destruction of the American and Global economy - so much for the one chance to have made a difference. He did exactly what the money from the 1% told him to do - we are screwed.

Really listen to what this man is saying...........He is wrong. The so called solution is not to be found in elected officials or some new banking scheme.
The solution is getting the progressive mindset out of our homes and families. Once we do this all the other pieces will fall into place. It really is that easy people. From the idealistic college student all the way to the retired grandparents we have to finally wake up.
When we rid ourselves of the progressive parasite the two party system will fall. Kids will be able to be kids again. The entitlement culture that has re-enslaved not only the blacks but everyone else will vanish like a fart in the proverbial wind.
We need men like Jefferson,Adams,King and the only way they can rise again is to end the progressive nightmare in our own backyards.edit on 16-10-2013 by SubTruth because: (no reason given)

Only thing he fails to mention is that the President is also bought and paid for as is the Senate.

Exactly right, which is why the president is never going to do what he wants. Ever.

Funny that the choices are kick the can down the road or face it now, and that the options are deal with it later or deal with it now.
Obama likes the deal with it later option... when he's no longer President.

What is going to happen when the American people "wholesale" learn the truth?
Ron Paul "would" have fired the economic bullet and we could be well on our way to healing the pain
And the American people would have hated him for it...
Today, tomorrow another year, a few more QE's but sooner or later were going to face that day of reckoning.
