+1.

But you know what? Be glad you live under the American governments control. There are MUCH worse and MUCH more corrupt governments out there. Take Ukraine for example. The recent presidential race was a 50.5/49.5 victory for Yanukovich over Timoshenko. Timoshenko’s people found some 900,000 ‘dead people’ voting. If she can get that overturned, she’s the new leader of the country and might, just maybe, fix that country (she’s the only one who’s actually been trying).

America is bad. But not as bad as some other places. Count your blessings folks.

The letter shows that he was of a sane mind and he does bring up some valid points… though I would never stand up like he did. (hides in closet from big brother watching… lol)

best thing that could have happened in a long time. he was in a sane state of mind and wanted to prove his point. lets see what else will be happening in the future like this. i can see this setting off chain reaction of people going against this tyrannical government.

If this was 1775, and he did something like this against the British, what would you have thought about him? This guy could be the new martyr for the working class.

However, there are a few things that are a bit off in his letter. First off the Catholic Church is not as powerful in the US. This country was gear towards the White Anglo-Protestant God in which people like the Irish and Italians were discriminated for their “popery.”

But a lot of other points I can agree with.

it’s a bit more to it than that, and i’m sure you are aware of the whole situation due to the stock market crash of 99/00, the fed’s decision to lower the lending rate to “boost” the economy, the housing market/subprime scheme that fucked over everyone but the investors in MBSs.

Everyday people lost a lot due to the markets and the only people that got bailed out were the ones that didn’t need to. some neo-liberalist economy we live in…:retardclap

You cant blame “those people over there” for any of it. The mortgage crisis were mortgages taken out by people who had no intention to pay them then rolled into mortgage backed securities which were demanded by other people. World wide. You cant end human greed by destroying the stock market and sending our society back to the bronze age.

You can, however, end the fed. Because the idea of the fed is absurd. But it wont happen by a bunch of unstable tards flying planes into buildings or bulldozing their houses.

so you think that the bailout was perfectly fine, which now reinforces the ability to get rewarded without the downfall of a possible risk. that’s not the capitalistic economy i know of.

it’s the banks fault for loaning people money via the NINA loans, and it was the banks fault for thinking and advertising these new MBS as a great investment. the investors and banks should have failed and not been bailout for their incompetence.

No I think the bank bailout was a travesty for those exact reasons.

You cant blame it all on the banks. The people wanted MBSs, the banks, with the encouragement of the government, were doing everything they could to provide them. People signing loans knowing they will not be able to pay them are just as at fault as the banks that gave them what they wanted/demanded/were pressured to by the gov.
