Blood-sucking Wall Street parasites

If things are allowed to continue as they are, It will no longer matter what political party you support, what God you believe in or not, what car you drive, etc. All that will matter will be getting rid of the blood-sucking Wall Street parasites who have buried themselves into the living flesh of the working people of America.

Out of control inflation, stagnant wages, outsourcing, the importing of cheap labor has put the American labor force in jeopardy. Our economy is in tailspin, millions have lost their jobs and homes, and the response of our Government in Washington is to give away billions more of taxpayer dollars to keep in business the bandits who are responsible for this disaster in the first place.

The unholy alliance of Wall Street and Washington has destroyed what used to be a great nation. It is not only responsible for putting into place the failed economic policy of "Free Trade", but supporting and profiting from the ruinous illegal and immoral wars, the costs of which are estimated to be in the trillions of dollars, as well as the human cost, the numbers of dead which are reaching genocidal proportions.

While we count the casualties and the costs of the wars and the deficits and job losses, we must also add to the casualty list our reputation among al the other Nations of the World who have begun to see us as an out-of-control renegade outlaw.

Our political and economic institutions have been totally corrupted and have failed the people. They no longer serve the interests of the great majority of Americans, but have become the willing and able agents of the wealthy elite.

If of course we are quite content to see the sweat of our hard earned work stolen by the wealthy Capitalist parasites, having to tighten our belts while Wall Street and their co-conspirators in Washington become swollen with the blood of our labor, then we should be satisfied with our lot. If we are satisfied being forced to work longer and longer hours for less and less, then we should not complain, it is our decision.

However, if we reject the idea of being exploited by some Wall Street moneychanger who compares our existence upon the face of this Earth to some commodity like toilet paper or garbage bags, then it is time to begin the process of removing their poison from our economic and our political body.

We must no loner support the parasites by investing in their money-making schemes which victimize the worker worldwide, and we must not support their agents in Washington who make no pretense as to whose bed they lie in.

Wall Street and the Bolshevik Revolution by Antony C. Sutton



Cartoon by Robert Minor in St. Louis Post-Dispatch (1911). Karl Marx surrounded by an appreciative audience of Wall Street financiers: John D. Rockefeller, J. P. (Pontifex Maximus) Morgan, (Pontifex Maximus), John D. Ryan of National City Bank, and Morgan partner George W. Perkins. Immediately behind Karl Marx is Teddy Roosevelt, leader of the Progressive Party.

I guess that every Wall St job supports 4.5 OTHER jobs in NYC is irrelevant.

Of course, it's not irrelevant.

What is MORE relevant is how many jobs would be supported and what would be the wage/benefit packages of those jobs without all the lying, cheating, stealing, corruption, inefficiency and waste, and WITH the acclaimed personal responsibility that Big Shots favor for Little People who fuck up.

So are you in favor of sacrificing the "little people" of which Wall St is primarily made up of, just to get to the so-called "Big Shots"?

Of course, I am not "in favor" of sacrificing little people...like, what? Ooooh, yummy, little people for dinner?

Two things:

1. Why would the rigorous prosecution of criminal executives jeopardize the peons beneath them? I hate to break it to Head Honchos but they are thirteen to the dozen, like any other Labor. Send one to prison and another is ready to slip seamlessly into place.

2. Where the profitability of a company, business or organization is held aloft by inefficient and/or unethical behavior, the way to protect the people thereby employed is NOT to overlook the inefficiencies and/or inequities. Better to cut losses and let the resources redistribute among efficient and ethical operations.

You walk five miles into the woods, you gotta walk at least five miles to get out. Americans are strange...we can look the other way, if fact we can go shopping, while thousands upon thousands die in Iraq, but we go weak at the knees at the thought of displaced Labor.

I would remind Americans that the ENTIRE MIDDLE CLASS is getting displaced.

If we imagine that we can correct our woes while sparing every single person from getting hurt, we have learned nothing...fresh credit cards all around.

I was thinking more of them losing their jobs, but if it's cannibalism you're into...


Why? Stock prices drop whenever a company is implicated in some sort of scandal. This affects lots of people's stock and retirement plans, forces company layoffs and other cutbacks.


Those "losses" you speak of consist of employees who simply did their jobs and were likely to NOT have been a part of the so-called behavior. Nobility is a wonderful thing for the aristocracy - its the peasants who suffer, though.

Not if the woods are only 6 miles across. I'm sure others also shop when we suffer. I don't think Iraqi's would have shed a tear over Hurricane Katrina victims. You're also discounting the amount of foreign aid this country gives all over the world. That "displaced labor" you wave your hand at is the average American who works and pays taxes and obeys the law and lives and dies in America, enabling it to prosper. If you feel so guilty about others, join the Peace Corps.


I'm middle class - I haven't been displaced.

This is just silly. No one is advocating "fresh credit cards all around" the key words are FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY - we are IN this credit mess because too many didn't practice it. These "Wall St" people you so openly scorn aren't the ones who caused this mess. In fact, many of them have LOST their livelihoods over companies such as New Century Financial, Countrywide Finance and the sort. Stocks of companies like these were striving, due in no small part to their own improprieties.The accounting firms who AUDIT them and issue opinions as to the validity of their financial reports are culpable. THESE companies are at fault - not Wall St. Wall St relies on its analysts, who LOOK at these financial reports to render opinions on a company.

There is blame to be placed - but you're not placing it where it belongs.

Yep, temporarily. But if it's a viable company, it re-gains its value and then some under reputable stewardship.

Of course, nipping bullshit in the bud would spare everyone the upset.


Most companies are more viable than ever without crooked management. Those that are not, are not. Would you have society bear the cost of bolstering companies that cannot survive in the market?


Good one, actually.


That's right. Most countries mind their OWN affairs.

It bears mention that a lot of Americans and lot of U.S. Government Officials didn't shed a tear over Hurricane Katrina victims, either.


The hell I am. That $50 billion that Bush recently gave Israel, concurrent with giving the Saudis $30 billion? That money shoulda been spent on United States infrastructure.


I assure you, I do not make light of the hardships of American Labor. On the contrary.


Yet.


You bet, and adherence to law. Presently, we reward both crime and shitty management.


Just as surely as the American economy is inexorably intertwined with the global economy, the domestic markets are also inexorably intertwined. Insurance is not distinct from healthcare is not distinct from Big Pharmaceuticals are not distinct from AgriBusiness is not distinct from alternative energies are not distinct from Wall Street is not distinct from banking is not distinct from Congress is not distinct from lobbyists are not distinct from corporations are not distinct from people.

People are the lowest and highest common denominator.

I'm laying blame exactly where it belongs, on the few bad apples that turn a whole barrel rotten, and the good apples that are prepared for everyone's barrel but their own to get turned upside down.

When it comes to upturning barrels before they go rotten through and through, the greater number of good apples who are in whichever barrel wants upending remain inclined, so long as they've still got theirs, to let the few fester. After all, they are so few...and there is a profit structure in place that accommodates the bullshit.

An analogy to gangrene is not, I think, histrionic.
