I can't say I exactly understand what these people were doing with dirivitives etc... but I do know that I remember when they spoke of de regularization, it left me with a question mark as to what this all meant.
Why did they need to de regularize?
Why are financial institutions not accountable to their customers?
Banks are there to help customers not to destroy them. If they destroy them then they should be held responsible and accountable. People are.

Why make things so complicated no one understands what they are doing?
Government doesn't understand so they let them do whatever.

Obama was elected saying he will make financial institutions accountable but then he hired the same people responsible for the crash and still paying them public funds.
They stole public funds and are being rewarded for it.

Now It is very nice the Republican Nominees committee is talking about how bad things are
but what do they know? Will they hire the same evil people to run things to their advantage?
And after watching this movie it is obvious to me every one in these companies should have all their money taken away from them and CEO's put in jail.

To think how many people were defrauded by giving them non existent mortgages and taking away all their lives' savings to leave them on the street is just plain evil and then people have to bail them out
Well I'd say people paid enough taxes for sure and now all these CEO's and Employees who made millions out of fraud should be examined and their money frozen or taken away.

The government has a right to take back all the land and open government banks and give back to the people what was stolen from them and then once they regularize everything, bring back jobs
the people should pay modest tax and live in homes with mortgages they can trust.

This economy story is just unacceptable.

Bank CEO's were paid millions to keep their mouths shut. They should all go to jail.
The whole thing is like a night mare. They became super rich over night without doing a stitch of work legally robbing the working guy. Government is elected to protect you from things like this.
Every time Bush talked business to the people, his face would turn red. He knew he was lying lol

When Obama appeared out of nowhere to be elected, it was clear the Republicans were not trying too hard to win the election.
They all knew something and now the people know.

Obama also doesn't know what he is doing by hiring the same people who did all this to get America out of the problem
What incredibly difficult things will they come up with again that no one will understand?
No one seems can be trusted to do the right thing.

Taking God out of the court system was a sign.
Does America still say In God We Trust?
He is the only one teaching humility, love of man instead of money.

Have a good one.

Leaders Can't Lead???

Hey! What's Prince Charles doing there? lol

Leaders Can't Lead?

Why do we have elections then?

How is it possible we have reached a stage, whereby when you have an official representing you,

his answer to you is:

Oops. It's outside my jurisdiction.

We are not responsible for this.

You go to the Premier or Governor and he says :

Oops.

Then you get to the Prime Minister and President and they both say:

OOps.

We're Global. We can't do anything.

Everything is outsourced.

Can we blame them?

Jobs, utilities, law, banks, all outsourced?

You want to talk to someone about a power outage, you are not talking to a local.

You are talking to India, the Philipines, and God knows who else.

How do they know what is going on in your area?

Should they know?

Is it their business?

We have people we elect and pay them huge salaries and pensions, but they have no jurisdiction to do anything, except spend our money and tax us.

Nothing belongs to the people and so people have no control over their lives.

The whole system and idea of democracy has become a fraud.

At no time in history has it become so important to keep things myopic, so we can see what is happening and to keep it under control.

People lost the control and business accountability.

No one needs to listen to our sob stories anymore and so

this is why the rich get richer and the middle class is on its' way to self destruction.

Leaders Can't Lead?

Fire them.

Leaders need to know how to lead and how to take back control

so they can represent the people.

I love Wolf Blitzer lol

His program sure fires you up to speak out.:)

The corporate boat race

An American automobile company and a Japanese auto company decided to have a competitive boat race on the Detroit River. Both teams practiced hard and long to reach their peak performance. On the big day, they were as ready as they could be. The Japanese team won by a mile.

Afterwards, the American team became discouraged by the loss and their morale sagged. Corporate management decided that the reason for the crushing defeat had to be found. A Continuous Measurable Improvement Team of "Executives" was set up to investigate the problem and to recommend appropriate corrective action. Their conclusion: The problem was that the Japanese team had 8 people rowing and 1 person steering, whereas the American team had 1 person rowing and 8 people steering.

The American Corporate Steering Committee immediately hired a consulting firm to do a study on the management structure. After some time and billions of dollars, the consulting firm concluded that "too many people were steering and not enough rowing." To prevent losing to the Japanese again next year, the management structure was changed to "4 Steering Managers, 3 Area Steering Managers, and 1 Staff Steering Manager" and a new performance system for the person rowing the boat to give more incentive to work harder and become a six sigma performer. "We must give him empowerment and enrichment." That ought to do it.

The next year the Japanese team won by two miles. The American Corporation laid off the rower for poor performance, sold all of the paddles, cancelled all capital investments for new equipment, halted development of a new canoe, awarded high performance awards to the consulting firm, and distributed the money saved as bonuses to the senior executives.

Charmed by Life

I love this old Mitch Miller Song. The melody just cheers you up usually until I got to singin it with different words, which I caught myself doing yesterday.

Oh dear , love to tax you, love to tax you, my dear old voter. lol
Now what possessed me to do that?
lol

This song is supposed to be the Florida State Song, however some of the old verse was
seen as racist some what, since it referred to plantations where black people worked.

But the melody is catchy and I guess suitable to make many a verse to go along with it having nothing to do with politics.

?????? TAXES ???????

Settling in for the night

The IRS and You This is Interesting.


CANADA's CONSTITUTION


Seems there is a discrepancy here. If we gave them less money, maybe they would wage less wars.

Maybe this man would have a place to live if he had less taxes to pay.
You think?

Disappointed that you never had time to write the great
American novel?
Don't fret, just go dig out your past tax
returns.

Quote: "The Eiffel Tower is the Empire State Building after
taxes."

Under the Freedom of Information Act, a man with a small
business sent a request to the IRS asking if they had a file
on him. The IRS wrote back, "There is now."

Quote: "It would be nice if we could all pay our taxes with
a smile, but normally cash is required."
