Breaking the thumb on the "Invisible Hand"...
That is what the short selling ban is about. If the thumb is left unbroken they get their ass kicked....the invisible hand was about to reveal how poorly they really play the game.

1. IT is all about postponing the consequences of their policies until they can blame the effects of
their policies on the Democratic party candidates that will be in office starting next January.

3. Too late for that now.
For the moment I'd rather think about what the next President is going to extract from their hides. Who has the cards now?

2. Ahhh, thanks
Now it all comes together. I've been looking around for a couple hours now wondering WTF was really going on, behind the scenes, and that was the last piece of the puzzle. I hope someone's taking notes, because I want to read the book.
