1. It is not a sign of things to come
It is just the way they are. This is the what's called picking the low-hanging fruit. Trust in this...they'll be back for more.

2. They even admitted it on NPR this morning.
As if we should just all accept it as the norm, which I guess it is. Big enough? You can rob the American taxpayer for as much as you want, until we can't print any more money!

5. I doubt the ink was given time to dry.
Maybe a couple of drool spots on some of the bills...

4. You can shear a sheep many times; you can only skin him once.
a lot of sheeple do not yet realize this is indeed the way things are, and Congress is not going to make it change.

7. GS is not a "sign of things to come"
It is a manifestation of "what is".

And I believe that nobody will do a dang thing about it.

Why would they start now?
