Rave this if you refuse to support the next bail out that is on its way! Apparently the last one was not enough, they not only volunteered tax payers for the next one, Goldman Sachs knows it is coming soon...

Apparently Barack Obama has agreed to make the tax payers foot the bill of the next bail out, that most of our country knows is coming. He actually agreed to make the tax payers pay for the gambling and investments of the banks, which is just worse than another bail out possibility, it means that there will be no accountability for the investments the banks make, because they will be gambling on your tax dollars, check out the article, and then leave your comments!!!!!!!!!!!!



As the Wall Street Journal reported yesterday:



Little noticed is that on Tuesday Team Obama took its first

formal steps toward putting taxpayers behind Wall Street derivatives

trading — not behind banks that might make mistakes in derivatives

markets, but behind the trading itself. Yes, the same crew that rails

against the dangers of derivatives is quietly positioning these

financial instruments directly above the taxpayer safety net.

webmaster commentary:



BUMP BACK TO THE TOP.



What this basically means is that the US

Government let Wall Street go wild with high-stakes gambling called

Derivatives, and even after the disaster of AIG (which was dumped into

the taxpayers) derivatives were still allowed to run rampant across the

globe. In other words, since Wall Street and the government ducked the

consequences of their earlier greed, they got greedier. Derivatives

exposure in Europe alone is almost $100
trillion. So what Wall Street

and Washington DC just did is drop the derivatives exposure
onto the

taxpayer. So when the system implodes, which is now inevitable, they

will come knocking on the door for your money, your gold, your jewelry,

the gold in your teeth, your silver, your copper, your car, and most

importantly the lives of your children pledged as slaves to the

resulting debt for the next 20 generations. As ancient Rome succumbed to

the machinations of the money-junkies, wives, daughters, even sons were

forced to work in state-owned houses of prostitution. Already in Europe

women are being told they must work as whores if they cannot find other

work with which to pay the money-junkies. Think it will not happen

here? Still believe Saddam had nuclear weapons?



Now, consider that since 2008 the American

people have told the US Government not to use taxpayer money to

backstop Wall Street's recklessness. Had DC allowed Wall Street to take

their lumps from the mortgage-backed securities fraud and fail, to be

replaced by more responsible financial leaders, we would already be

headed out of this mess the way Iceland
is. But the US Government

ignored the will of the people, went ahead with TARP and an endless

stream of additional bailouts, Wall Street got greedier and now Europe

hovers over the edge of a precipice, firmly tied to the Wall Street

banks by derivatives, and now Washington DC wants to move those chains

from their good buddies the bankers onto your ankles, and wave good
bye as you sink our of sight into the abyss.



In other words, the government is going to

force you to pay for the failure that resulted from their doing

something you told them not to do in the first place.



And if you go along with this, then you
deserve everything that is about to happen.



Now is the time to get angry, because you
have nothing left to lose!



“And how we burned in the camps later,

thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative,

when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether

he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if,

during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they

arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there

in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door

and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing

left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of

half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at

hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of

officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the

cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love

freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real

situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened

afterward.”
-― Aleksandr I.

    I didn't support the first round of bail outs. Protest all you want, barry and this government does whatever the hell they want to do and couldn't give a rat's ass what you or anyone thinks or says about it. Only one way to stop it.

    Must be nice to be a part of the oligarchy.

    You gamble. If you win, you keep the profits. If you lose, the taxpayers pick up the bill.

    I just don't believe this story. It is coming from the wrong angle. Bush bialed out Wall St. not Obama. Obama bailed out the auto industry which was about to go belly up and loose us even more jobs. The bail out of the banks was a world wide problem. Obama did not even get the whole story until after he took office. Let's not forget the source. The Wall Stree Journal - owned by Rupert Murdock who is a right wing conservative idealogue. He believes only in making money and building his empire with no holds barred.

    ok, well its out there for you to find, i bet you dont believe he took away your right to a fair trial by jury, or that he is taking your guns, or that he is taking your life by way of declaring another stupid war, or that he is for banning natural foods, or that he lies everytime he opens his mouth, or that he hates america, i bet you dont believe he is from kenya or that he is being impeached either do you, open the internet pages and find the facts, then tell me obama does not support the auto bail outs, he said it himself, he said that ford is still alive and he voted for the bail out, o i bet you didnt know that more of his campaign contributions come from banks more than any other candidate besides mitt, but they both get their contributions from wall st and the banks but you dont believe that either do you

    Goodness, how many generations of us are they prepared to mortgage before they realise that it is a pointless exercise?

    Every time there is a bailout the bankers get rich off the transactioin and the amount of interest to be paid just keeps on getting bigger and bigger...

    I DO NOT agree with any bailout!~
    it creates dependency and entitlement, the co that messed up and now with bailouts available and promised - they can continue to do the same risky bs that got them in trouble in the first place and expect assistance in return for their mistakes!!

    Ofcoarse that wallstreet troll wants to come clean after he got rich of this bs!

    The Republican House will never allow another Corporate bailout this year or the next 3 years. Approval for funds or appropirations for this purpose would not pass the Senate in an Election year. Unless, Barack already has taxpayers funds previouly funded, now, there will be no more Private sector or corporate Bailouts in 2012

    that is worth its weight in gold!!!

    Now take that to JP Morgan and the rest of them
