These people need to go to jail. And the fines have to be higher than the amount of money they stole, we have to take the profit out of it.

Write your Congressional Representatives and Senators, INSIST that they press on this.

 

[JAMESBJOHNSON]

They wont go to jail, cuz too many VIPs are involved.

 

[hobbit.]

in reality they should be hung drawn and quartered.

thieving cunts.

They won't go to jail because they didn't do anything illegal.

 

[Balladeer08]

Are you kidding me? You think conspiracy and rate-fixing are legal? Bribery?

 

[Balladeer08]

thieving cunts.

Again, an understatement. They have stolen TRILLIONS of dollars out of the world economy over the last decade or so.

These are people who should be put on the guillotine face up.

its only illegal IF you dont actually own a fucking bank! own a bank and you can get away with murder! or assisted suicide as banks have less of a problem when refering to those who have off'ed themselves when threatened with foreclosure / repossession.

The financial industry is under-regulated, thanks to conservatives.

If the fence ain't high enough, critters will jump it.

i like the cut of your gib sire!

face up, but with a rusty nail in groove.. as the blade drops it 'sticks' then some working class type steps forward and says "I can say the problem! its this nail here" removes nail and blade drops !!!

i think you will find that it is / has been , under regulated due to influential greedy bastards, some of whom claim to be from the left, but in reality have never worn socks with holes in the toes.

What I can't understand is why the LIBOR scandal and the related Bond rate fixing scandal ( http://www.rollingstone.com/politic...et-learned-from-the-mafia-20120620?print=true) are not getting more attention.

Each of these represents TRILLIONS of dollars stolen from individuals and government institutions. They represent jobs lost, and the rest snowballs downhill from there.

SCREAM about it people!

This is grossly illegal behavior, on an EPIC scale.

Insist on jail terms, and fines that amount to more than they stole. These people were rich to begin with. This unmitigated greed has been destroying the lives of common people.

At the time of the French Revolution, 1% of the people owned 99% of everything. In the USA, I think it is around 1% owning 90%. And climbing.

I heard the WalMart family controls more wealth than the lower 50% of the population.

The trend needs to be reversed, or there will be bloody revolution. History will repeat itself.

Prosecute NOW, harshly, while there is still time.

Reverse the trend.

Or start making up lists of who should get this revolution's version of the guillotine.

What few GET is this: Today we're stealing all the value contained within future generations. Communal debt is how we do it. And the stolen wealth is in the hands of our VIPs and Elites, who traded the paper money for gold, castles with moats, and cops to keep you away when the end comes.

 

[hobbit.]

What I can't understand

who controls the media?

 

[Balladeer08]

who controls the media?

They don't control the internet. We can try putting the information out here.

And word of mouth.

Really, I think once people get it through their heads, they will become quite angry (understatement).

(Hopefully the image link worked. If not it says

A NATIONAL DEBT IS A NATIONAL DISGRACE, because it taxes our children WITHOUT THEIR CONSENT!

Date this then.....


"When this universal law of equity rises up in every man and woman, then none shall lay claim to any creature and say, This is mine, and that is yours. This is my work, that is yours. But everyone shall put their hands to till the earth and bring up cattle, and the blessing of the earth shall be common to all; when a man hath need of any corn or cattle, take from the next store-house he meets with. There shall be no buying and selling, no fairs or markets, but the whole earth shall be the common treasury for every man, for the earth is the Lord's...
"When a man hath eat, and drink, and clothes, he hath enough. And all shall cheerfully put to their hands to make these things that are needful, one helping another. There shall be none lords over others, but everyone shall be a lord of himself, subject to the law of righteousness, reason and equity, which shall dwell and rule in him, which is the Lord."

Because people who care about the LIBOR have known for years the metric is puffed, and those who don't care... don't care.

It's like when the EPA says your car will get 30 MPG. Everyone knows that's bullshit, but so what?
