CNN's bankster cheerleader Erin Burnett: 'We should root for the banks.'

[swag]

Shot I took at a hotel bar on Wednesday afternoon. Right before this, this chyron read "BANKS ARE GOOD FOR AMERICA."

1. We should all root for the banks to be broken up or nationalized

You got that right!

11. Carve them up like a Thanksgiving turkey. nt

2. Only if they're regulated to the point that they can't engage in wholesale graft and fraud.

If that cannot be accomplished, then banks are decidedly NOT good for America, period!

3. She has become such a pathetic joke - lame pablum, sugarcoated with good looks, is still pablum.

4. What else did you expect from the business media?

Never trust them on anything.

5. break up the big banks & regulate them into law abiding citizens. nt

6. Did she have any rationale for that statement?

7. Anyone here remember the opening scenes from Blade Runner? And that Japanese commercial where

the Geisha girl is popping a pill and then smiling to the camera? That is what I'm reminded of when looking at that screenshot and reading the thread title.

8. She roots for banks, all right.

All throughout her CNBC tenure and now on CNN, Beijing Burnett been a Wall Street shill, a media queen treating banksters just like King Tut.

This is what happens when you're raised as a blueblood - you know nothing of poverty or suffering except as something you fly over on your way to Macau or Dubai.

10. Typo

She meant - "We should ROB for the banks."

12. The Banks Are Already Being Robbed, by their Own Management

The best way to rob a bank is to own one.
