Reply #101: Chris Martenson: bailout bill is the largest looting operation ever [View All]

[DemReadingDU]

Reading thru the website for the The Crash Course, I found this comment by Dr. Chris Martenson about the bailout bill:
9/21/08 "Mark my words, this is the largest looting operation ever in the history of the US, and it's all spelled out right in this delightfully brief document that is about to be rammed through a scared Congress and made into law."

and here is someone's reply to Martenson that bluntly says it all:

Correcto-mundo, Doctor M. This is bigger than 9/11. Bigger than the Crash of 1987. Probably bigger than the New Deal, which was the greatest expansion of central government ever. Some are calling it the "PATRIOT Act of Finance" in its sublime high-handedness. If this gets done, words such as "capitalism," "democracy," "economic freedom" and "representative government" will no longer apply to the US. I call the new system Kleptofeudalism. Under this system, a one-percenter group of privileged Kleptocrats owns and operates the country. Meanwhile, Worker/Suckers -- the remaining 99% of the population -- serve as their livestock. Worker/Suckers exist only to service the Treasury debt, and breed more Worker/Suckers to keep servicing the debt in generations to come. As in feudal times, class lines will solidify into iron curtains. The chances of your children advancing from Worker/Sucker to Kleptocrat will be virtually nil. This is literally the most radical event which has happened on North American soil since the Declaration of Independence was issued on 4th July 1776. But this is an anti-Revolution, a rollback of liberty, an enslavement. It is a fundamental and irrevocable alteration of our form of government. The only certainty, under the coming tyranny, is that the dollar is doomed to become a weak, Third World currency, which may not even be accepted outside CONUS borders. As refugees from 1930s fascism learned, gold is good. But diamonds may be more concealable and transportable. Frankly, I fear social unrest. If busted plutocrats can loot the Treasury for $700 billion on a whim, why shouldn't the jobless homeless loot stores for clothes and shoes? There is no answer, other than than "the 'law' is only for little people." And such an answer may not be satisfactory. Congratulations on proclaiming -- well in advance -- "The End of Money." Ding ding ding, it's here. Now what?

If you do not want to become a Worker/Sucker, please call your Senators and Congressman to vote NO on the bailout bill. If not available, their staff will take your message. Do it NOW!
