If People Understood This One Thing, We Would Have Revolution Overnight

27. Don't you realize that we already have a guaranteed income??

Where have you been since Jan 2009?

Every person in power has guaranteed that we already have a guaranteed income, and Bush/Obnama economic policies have ensured that no one will tamper with it.

It's just that we have set it in stone so that it is received by the Banking and Financial classes.

No one will tamper with it, not even after it is proved that our Banking and Financial officials are crooks and thieves of the highest order.


When back in late summer and early autumn, 2008, Tim Geithner, as the head of the NY Fed, allowed the firms on Wall Street to rape Main Street, despite the heads of the House Financial committee saying there were laws on the books that made a great deal more sense than bailing out the very monsters that caused the economic collapse, Geithner just sneered at them.

Tim Geithner should have been wearing an orange jump suit and sitting in prison for racketeering. Instead, once Obama was elected, little Timmy got the top job at Treasury.

And so after bailing out Wall Street, Main Street is still licking its wounds. Twelve million households have been foreclosed, and the rest of us had a hard scrabble time during the bad years. Now when we need help for our bsunesses, we find out that Wall Street will not even LOAN us the money we need. (Although Wall Street will let you have tens of thousands of dollars to go to University online and get that degree in communications!)
