“government and banks would never allow that to happen”

Were you born stupid and naive or did you go to a special school to learn those character traits?

[kev374 – this is not directed at you it is directed at the quoted thought which so many Americans seem to believe – they probably secretly believe in Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny as well – unfortunately it is their lack of education and knowledge that allows them to hold this belief – it doesn’t take much research to learn that banks and governments “do allow that to happen” from time to time (or they are unable to prevent “that” from happening) – there are even people on this planet who believe that governments and banks intentionally CAUSE “that to happen” because it allows them to consolidate their power (for example, the banks that failed in the Great Depression were primarily the independent banks that didn’t want to play the Federal Reserve game – just a coincidence or was the Fed eliminating competition?)]
