Welcome to the repuke S&L Crisis II!!
You thought the first S&L "crisis" was the biggest, most outrageous heist in history!

You thought ronnie raygun got away with a "trifecta" then . . .

You ain't seen nothing yet!

IT'S BACK!!! Repuke S&L II!!

Double the fun! Double the thrills! Double the haul.



They stole half a trillion in the first one (plus the couple of trillion "missing" when Clinton took over and decided that justice was off the table).

Then (so far) they stole 2 or 3 trillion in the "war" on "terror."

Now they want another trillion or so.

The gullibility of the Amurkan people is unsurpassed by any force in the known universe.

1. So every 20 yrs or so we'll Bailout "Trickle Down Economics"
We are not bailing out mortgages but rather the whole concept of "Trickle Down Economics"

2. yep
modern "capitalism" is a lie concocted by the wealthy when they failed to democratically unseat FDR, failed to stage a coup to unseat him and then found themselves forced into the indignity of sharing citizenship with increasingly prosperous and well-educated peasants. It took them a couple of generations of careful planning and execution, but at last it is time to reassert their divine right to own everything and to rule.
