yes, maplesyrup. the government and the banks are equally responsible.

paulsen, bernanke, greenspan, geithner, et al, should all be in jail, along with whoever was running the SEC, along with the banksters.

it’s easy to just say “caveat emptor.” it’s an easy analysis that explains why the fat cats aren’t in jail. yes, i understand that there were people who gamed the system that republicans built for fun and profit. they should be prosecuted and thrown in jail.

but we both know that’s not who i was talking about. i was addressing some of the right-wing talking points and fox news “stories” that claim that “welfare queens” wrecked the system, and they did so with malice aforethought out of some sense of “entitlement.”

in that regard, DP, you will never get me to blame the victims when the scales of justice are so light on the banks’ side of the fulcrum. so i guess i’ll just keep annoying the crap out of you. :P

but i will admit guilt as one of the hijackers of this thread. i say we take it to cuba, until the imperialist pigs give us what we want.
