OK, so we aren't completely socialist acording to the text book, I feel so much better now, for a minute I feared with all the other similarites maybe we had something to worry about about.
What's Interesting though is:
How the Government wants to regulate salaries.
In the Chrysler Bail-out the largest percentage was given to the Labor Unions.
The Government forced banks to accept deals they otherwise would have laughed at.
Our own Congress passes a law allowing a tax targeted at very specific group of people.
Kinda looks like maybe a fondation is being laid for something down the road.
I wonder what?
hhhmmmmm............
You're nothing even close ressembling socialist.
Read a few articles recently about Wall St etc and how they are acting like nothing happened. Every time the govt tries to regulate them, they lobby, pack a hissy fit and nothing gets done.
Maybe if the bank doesn't want to do deals with the govt 'they otherwise would have laughed at', maybe they should have sorted out their shit beforehand before being greedy pricks. There is only one place the blame lies at for this clusterfuck that is/was the GFC, and that is greedy corporate fucktards. IOW, uber capitalists....
