Participant“What this country needs is to clean house and through future elections replace ALL in congress. It is unlikely that there is one honest and uncorrupted person left on BOTH sides.”
You’re right, it is unlikely. But I think Ron Paul might actually be one. I just finished reading his book “The Revolution”, and he nailed this economic problem dead on. He makes the very valid point that we are always faced with false options, “Should we bomb this country or that country? Should we spend $700B this way or that way?” These questions exclude the options, “How about we don’t bomb anyone? How about we don’t spend $700B bailing out a failed system and burdening responsible citizens with higher taxes and inflation?” The damage has already been done. It was years ago, else this website wouldn’t exist. There is no bailing out this problem. We have the tough choice again of either taking our medicine today, hopefully mostly on our own terms, or taking even worse medicine tomorrow, likely on the terms of our biggest creditors, among whom are China and Russia. I don’t like option two. How about we don’t spend the additional $700B we don’t have?

Participant“From what I am hearing JP Morgan won WaMu through FDIC auction at least a week ago. ”
capeman, where are you hearing this? Can you give links to sources/news stories? We’ve been combing the internet trying to find any reference anywhere to JP having any control of WaMu prior to 9/25, but nothing turns up. I agree with your evaluation that it happened too fast, too seemlessly to have just occurred yesterday. But where’s the proof? If you can point to any, I’d be truly grateful!
