Corporate Tax Holiday i...yes profit over people...<br /><br />Corporate Tax Holiday in Debt Ceiling Deal: Where's the Uproar?<br /><br /><br />We’re seriously talking about defaulting on our debt, and cutting Medicare and Social Security, so that Google can keep paying its current 2.4 percent effective tax rate and GE, a company that received a $140 billion bailout en route to worldwide 2010 profits of $14 billion, can not only keep paying no taxes at all , but receive a $3.2 billion tax credit from the federal government. And nobody appears to give a shit. What the hell is wrong with people? Have we all lost our minds?<br /><br />http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/blogs/taibblog/holiday-in-scambodia-20110720Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5724181159639068489.post-37675931450181076662011-07-21T12:26:51.449-04:002011-07-21T12:26:51.449-04:00Top Fed official got waiver on AIG holdings: GAO

Only Poor Peop...This is beautiful and the truth...<br /><br />Only Poor People Should Be Allowed To Fail <br /><br />My regular readers surely remember George Carlin’s Great Big Club, the one you’re not in. The club’s members are the elites who have a large say in how the U.S. (and world) economy is run. They often come from the world of Big Finance. Usually they are former (and future) employees of the big Wall Street banks. There is no overt conspiracy to run the world. Instead, there is a loose but incredibly effective coalition of common interests. Washington politicians, at least the important ones, are often in their pocket.<br /><br />Larry Summers carries water for those interests. He is their mouthpiece and back in 1999 under Clinton, he was their enforcer. There he is (far right) on the cover of Time Magazine in February, 1999 along with Bob Rubin and Alan Greenspan. And how was this 3-man committee to save the world going to accomplish this great feat? By deregulating derivative securities, repealing Glass-Steagall, etc.<br /><br />http://www.swarmusa.com/vb4/showthread.php/6615-Only-Poor-People-Should-Be-Allowed-To-FailAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5724181159639068489.post-90664692306336807092011-07-20T15:40:36.869-04:002011-07-20T15:40:36.869-04:00The amount of thievery and the financial sectors a...The amount of thievery and the financial sectors ability to remove itself from serious penalty speaks volume to how corrupt the system truly is..it's really obscene.<br /><br />Warren Buffett's Wells Fargo Busted For Lying To People, Wristslapped With $85 Million Fine By The Emperor Of Moral Hazard Himself<br /><br />http://www.zerohedge.com/article/warren-buffetts-wells-fargo-busted-lying-people-wristslapped-85-million-fine-emperor-moral-h?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
