The world is changing at a very rapid pace. The power structure is becoming more and more evident. Science fiction movies of years past depicting how corporations take over governments is becoming reality. Corporate seals and logos of many corporations are more recognizable by the public then are flags of states and countries.
Beware!
MOSCOW (AP) — President Dmitry Medvedev has held talks with Goldman Sachs chief Lloyd Blankfein about the bank's possible participation in a direct investment fund the Kremlin is looking to create to attract foreign capital.
The Kremlin said Blankfein visited Medvedev on Tuesday to discuss the idea of a fund, which Medvedev first raised at the World Economic Forum in Davos in January.
There was no other information on the meeting, the size of the possible fund, or when it would be introduced.
Russia suffers from chronic underinvestment, prompting its leaders to frequently advertise the country as a haven for foreign capital. Would-be investors regularly point to persistent corruption and impenetrable bureaucracy as reasons they look elsewhere.

Interesting that it was not a feature story in main stream media. A very controversial business figure, accused by many of leading the charge to the world economic crisis, is entertained by the President of Russia. Well, it may be no surprise as we all know that Russia if full of corruption. Matching The Kremlin with Goldman Sachs could very well be a "match made in Red Square".

U.S. District Judge Denise Cote refused to set aside the verdict and dismiss the indictment against Aleynikov, or alternatively to grant him a new trial, court records dated Wednesday show.

MEANWHILE THE BIGGEST THIEVES ARE STILL OUT THERE!
Federal Reserve wild financial beast of Maiden Lane – How the Fed silently helped Hilton and Waldorf properties for the benefit of JPMorgan while placing the cost on working and middle class Americans.
The bailouts were marketed and branded as a way of helping out the working and middle class. Given the massive financial destruction that the working and middle class still face it is easy to conclude that the stated policy failed. Yet looking at banking profits it did succeed for this segment of our economy. The Federal Reserve doesn’t even bother hiding this massive bailout and even labels these toxic vehicle hotels with its own address. Let us look closely at the Maiden Lane product.
