Bank Immunity: When Do We Crack Down on Wall Street? posted by Dean Baker via stan, 2013-03-11 22:20:27
The Wall Street gang must really be partying these days. Profits and bonuses are as high as ever as these super-rich takers were able to use trillions of dollars of below-market government loans to get themselves through the crisis they created. The rest of the country is still struggling with high unemployment, stagnant wages, underwater mortgages and hollowed-out retirement accounts, but life is good again on Wall Street. (full story)

Elusive Realities posted by stan, 2013-03-07 21:22:01
Hugo Chavez, the democratically elected socialist president of Venezuela, died this week of cancer and only hours after his death was announced puppet president Obama released a prepared press statement, not expressing his remorse over the death of a great reformist leader that survived all CIA attempts to remove him from power, but the usual bribe 'incentives’ message to the remaining Venezuelan leadership. That is to be expected from ‘buy or bomb,’ America; however, the following assault on reality was not expected. (full story)

Rotten to the core -- God is not a Banker posted by Lynn Stuart Parramore via sal, 2013-03-02 00:21:50
It’s a place where angels fear to tread; where criminals, frauds and mysterious corpses turn up as regularly as rats in the metro. The Institute for Works of Religion, commonly known as the Vatican bank, was set up in 1942 by Pope Pius XII to manage the vast Vatican finances. Often referred to as the world’s most secret bank, the operation is run by a CEO and overseen by five cardinals who report directly to the Pope. (full story)
