Peacocks got a trim last night.

[longnine009]

According to Yahoo Europe and Asian markets went into another  plunge last night. It's starting to look like the senate and congress have done nothing accept to prove to Americans what they have always suspected but never wanted to admit.  Capitol Hill's  total contempt for those opposed to the bail out, a ratio of 9/1 against is in your face proof that we  are ruled by aristocrats.  "Democracy" is a fraud.  It's just a tool to  shield bilderberg pigs from torches and pitch forks. 

Hank Paulson should be charged with treason and put on public trial. All he's doing is saving his wallstreet buddies before the bond markets throw the hand grenade into the Peacock cage.

Oh crikes, I thought you had Peacocks and trimmed them last night and were offering photographic evidence.  Actually the crows are circling Wall St. right now.

The Dow is now below 10,000.    I haven't seen that for a while.

Crash predicted for wednesday US side
Russia and Brazil crashed today

There is a bright side to all this:

Here's a interesting tid-bit:

http://www.indianasnewscenter.com/news/local/30491154.html

I'll bet none of Hankie's whores had to shoot themselves in the chest to get a write-off.  Although I wish they would.

[scottishmoney]

So take that as advice, if you are having problems with your mortgage, shoot yourself so you can get your way out of it.  What I want to know is how an 80+ year old woman was able to refinance a house she has lived in since 1970 several times over since 1997?  This is an example of why we are in the mess we are.

[longnine009]

She probably told them she was using the money for a "new economy" dot com start up with projected earnings in the pipe line of 50 million dollars a minute. 

This is the can of worms they've opened up now. People whose mortgages formerly  held by  friends of Hankie, dumped into Failie Mae, and now the U.S government, will have an excuse not to pay it: "If Hankie's pals can get can something for nothing why can't  I?"

This is why the Army is gearing up for urban warfare in Amerika.  Paulson is a fraud and everyone knows it because everyone else is playing the same "something for nothing" game that he's playing for his CEO pals in the banking industry.

IMO, this bailout of 700 of billion, ooops 750, oops 850 is the "catalyst" that kicks off the Fourth Turning--William Strauss & Neil Howe. Fourth Turnings are the Crisis cycle.  The U.S Civil War and World War ll were Fourth Turnings. Fourth Turnings are to the death, take no prisoners, scotched earth.  The fool Paulson hasn't a clue what he has started. 

But not to worry. The G30 is working on a hot tip that something might be wrong.

Buzzards need to eat don't they? Just a shame it took so long to feed them. Actually I am sick of hearing the blame game and the finger pointing at the current administration when this whole mess started years and years ago. One must not forget the morality we lived with during the Clinton Administration. You talk about GREED years!!! It doesn't matter who is President when greed and corruption is rampant sooner or latter the bubble has to bust. There has to be literally thousands of companies with two sets of books in this nation. One with rose colored pages for the stockholders and investors and one hollowed out to hold all the crap they are hiding. The REALLY sad part is not one CEO or government official will lose their home(s), lose a penny of their money or go to jail. The rich shall pat the back of the rich!

[scottishmoney]

Twoshadows, I can tell you companies only keep one set of books, the rose coloured flavoured ones.  They do not keep the dung books, or they might slip out.  This confidential stuff is kept in the head, ala Ken Lay and Enron. 

[longnine009]

Buzzards need to eat don't they?

As well as crows and rats.  Scavengers are classified as "decomposers."  Pretty neat since 2008 is the year of the rat and what so far is looking like a lot of decomposing of so called "capitalism."   

[scottishmoney]

We might see the end of capitalism as we know it very soon, no matter who gets elected president.

[S.George]

 

Hi Twoshadows:

The start was in 1980s with President Jimmy Carter.   His intention  was good.   Everyone involved with good faith.

Latter, some borrowers and administrators done bad things due to greed and chating each other.  Thus everything is collapsing as a 'brick'  in the wall is removed..causing the fall of the entire wall.
I hope, slowly things will improve as they say 'whatever goes down should go up'

Normally I wouldn't be bothered  by an  end to  "Privatize the profits, piratize  the losses."  Only what awaits us is more of the same just "globalized"  Corporate Fascism. They're already talking about a global currency (guess they never heard of gold) to deal with the economic melt down. And...scratches  head-- how's the script go again? Oh yeah,  HURRY!!! HURRY!!!! The ECONOMIC WAVE OF DEATH IS UPON US.  WE  MUST SAVE HUMANITY!!!!  WE MUST IMPLEMENT THIS!!! (Bells, whistles, two gaping primates with  shiny bald heads)  NO!!! YOU DON'T HAVE TIME TO READ IT, JUST VOTE IT INTO LAW!!!!!!!!!!

Sir OldDan:
You are very experienced Senior Citizen and knew things better than any one   
They say, the 'STOCK MARKET PRICE IS LIKE CYCLE PEDAL'    Economy depends on the healthy stock market.   Now it is in down trend.
I am sure, your Great  Country which saw many ups and downs, will over come the present problem, slowly.   You are going to see it Sir Dan.
I use only Cycle, in this small town.

Besides, I've been there and done that, back in the 30's, so it's something any person can live through by making adjustments to their life style. Actually most of the changes that will be made will be benefitial to that person in the long run.

You being the voice of experience here, it is sage advice.

I believe that one positive thing that will happen is imports being so much more to ship and pay for from overseas will become a thing of the past, and that food will once more be produced here again.  I look forward to buying fruits and vegetables from the USA that are free of salmonella etc. that have been present in some of the foodstuffs coming in from Mexico, or the toxins in foods coming from China.

People will be forced to have to be a lot more responsible, the days of free credit living are a thing of the past.  In fact if you don't use your cards often, you will find as I have that the issuers will cut your limits on them.  Big whoop. 

Cash is king now.

Sir OldDan:

Recently, I heard in TV 'stone age man has changed a lot, NOT because, stones were not available".  Human ingenuity will find ways to over come the problems, slowly and steadily.  I am very sure, your Great Country, Mother of all economies of the world wil again, stand gigantically.  We can over come fear, Sir OldDan

You are more American than many people here.  Can we send about 25 people over in a fair trade for you?

Do you know how many soya beans are genetically modified ? or potatoes to repel colorado beatles ? or tomatoes ? or cotton ? or grains ?
Do you know how many cows are injected with BST to give more milk and that they get uteritis and have to be treated with antibiotics you drink in the milk

Last time I looked all those were still outlawed in Europe but I take as little soy as possible because like one quality manager pointed out to me that if a boat with
10 000 ton arrives some beans do not have modified written on the beans

Last time I looked was 2001 so I may be out of date

Dear Sir Scottishmoney:

First I am an Indian.   Then like America.   President Kennedy has saved us from Chinese agression during 1962.   Otherwise, India would have been a part of China.

Hence I am grateful.

Well!    Well!   Yes!   I am interested to see America and also your part of the world.   During 1960s many Russians were in my small town, for the erection of Tunnel Power House.

I will only be glad to be in your Motherland as well as U.S.A.

Sincerely, george

[Paint Your Wagon]

very generous of you scottish

in some others they become soilent green
in some others walking dead

[scottishmoney]

It is generous.  Well at least for America, cannot say for India though.  We know we are getting someone intelligent and will work for our country.  Cannot say same for India, they might turn around and send them off to China or something.  Or how about Pakistan?
