1. The video title is mislabeled it hasn't happened yet, and she is
treated terribly in this clip.

"financial rapist (DSK) replaced by a debt whore (International Monetary Fund's Chief Christine Lagarde)" quoting from clip

This is just shock jock journalism, albeit with a bit of truth to it..

We should have rounded up the bankers in 2008, (fat chance under Bush OR Obama) and taken their freedom away, put them in jail for larceny, and kept them for 3 years in GTMO awaiting trial, they get out only if they give up all their personal wealth and plead guilty serving 25 to life.. That, and strict banking regulations on derivatives, etc. with new players, deterred from doing what their predecessors did by the charges against such predecessors.

I wish Obama and Geithner had had some insight into the causes, (greed) and repercussions of lax regulation, and OH HOW I WISH Obama had used the power of the voters who put him in office to have SHAME the Republicans and bankers in the first two years. Instead, he wanted compromise, a compromise that always gives Republicans and bankers 99% of what they want.

7. USA USA USA,. . Bla bla bla,. . Grow up!
Yes, you should discount any opinion that does not come from the American Corporate Military Banking system as all else is clearly propaganda of the highers order. Especially a new organisation with a mission statement like this one;

"to heed the voices and perspectives of the people of the world; build bridges of cultural understanding; encourage human beings of different nationalities, races and creeds to identify with one another; bring to light untold and overlooked stories of individuals who have experienced political and cultural divides firsthand."

Who would want to hear news and opinions that deviate from the Corporate America One Party ideal that we all know is the smartest and bestest, super-duper greatest economic political system that god ever gave to the poor world!!!! USA USA USA ! (yes America is winning! Charlie Sheen told me..,)

Personally, I just unrecommend anything that is not from the office of an american mega-corporation or the US military establishment, as I would not want to have to THINK FOR MYSELF, EVER.

6. Give 'em hell Max
Yep, Max frequently uses strong language, namely, "whore" and "rapist." But oddly, it's not to degrade the target's sexuality, but to strongly emphasize the morally craven quality of their professional behavior, in this case the IMF's devious taking advantage of the world's debt, which directly affects the average citizens of the world through "austerity" measures, for example, reducing Medicare and Social Security in order to pay off debt. Max links prostitution and rape with the concept of doing anything for a buck, which he believes the IMF bankers are attempting. I've heard him call men whores before; this is not an insult he reserves just for women. It's shocking language, no doubt, but it gets my attention and it makes me think.
