  Banks cut cosy deals with each other while You get shafted posted by Robert Scheer via stan, 2012-06-14 09:45:15
Statistics are boring, but it’s important to wrap your head around this latest one from the Federal Reserve as the definitive epitaph for the American dream. Wall Street’s financial shenanigans, the banking games that made some fat cats outrageously wealthy as they turned home mortgages into toxic securities, wiped out 20 years of growth in American families’ net worth.

 Panetta: US "reaching the limits of its patience" - O, really? posted by gan, 2012-06-07 10:34:56
The latest demented American dunce to stick his moronic boot in his imbecilic mouth is Secretary of Defense, Leon Panetta. Former CIA boss Panetta represents a known lawless nation run by murdering and thieving criminals -- the USA is the world's leading civilian killing nation, approx 5 million murdered since Vietnam; it is also the world's leading invading and occupying nation that specializes in resource theft and assassinating leaders that oppose its imperial designs/policies of appropriating the resources of weaker nations. It has even taken to oppressing its own population with constant surveillance, new draconian indefinite detention 'laws' and military policing. (full story and 1 comments)

 Traditional Enmity Delivers Strategic Gift to US posted by quin, 2012-06-03 09:19:37
Vietnam and China share a border and an Ocean, over which conflict has erupted over the centuries. The last overt war the two nations fought was in the 70's; China called it, 'teaching Vietnam a lesson.' The conflict raged for a few weeks before China was satisfied that Vietnam had learned its lesson (and place). (full story and 1 comments)

 US/NATO breeding division, conflict and chaos in Africa posted by Dan Glazebrook via stele, 2012-05-25 23:54:29
The scale of the ongoing tragedy visited on Libya by NATO and its allies is becoming horribly clearer with each passing day. Estimates of those killed so far vary, but 50,000 seems like a low estimate; indeed the British Ministry of Defence was boasting that the onslaught had killed 35,000 as early as last May. But this number is constantly growing. (full story)

NATO expands because it is UNCHALLENGED by (COWARDLY) Russia and China posted by lux, 2012-05-20 01:11:38
That's basically the long and short of it. All the ballyhoo surrounding the clearly criminal organisation of NATO is of no major consequence; NATO will continue its criminal military occupations, murder and expansionism until it is challenged by a greater or equal force on the world stage -- THAT SIMPLE!
It is a known that the combined military and nuclear strength of China and Russia is equal to that of the West -- and is fully capable of reducing continental America and Western Europe to ash! (full story and 1 comments)

A 12yo explains modern Reserve Banking posted by stele, 2012-05-17 09:02:31
Though the video relates to Canada, it applies to any nation that is part of the global Reserve Banking system. Australia also had a national people's Bank, the appropriately named 'Commonwealth Bank' -- which was PRIVATISED by Labor Prime Minister, Paul Keating, who also dutifully floated our sovereign currency on Wall Street, thereby enslaving the nation to FOREIGN Big money interests!

Russia and China Squeal in Pain ... posted by Nile Bowie via baz, 2012-05-16 23:56:12
Absolutely no apologies for the gross metaphor but what does it take to get a decisive reaction from Russia and China -- if indeed these two COWERING 'superpowers' are capable of reacting at all? (full story)

 Wall Street Banksters Feeling Heat posted by red, 2012-05-10 23:59:59
Deserving of all the contempt and hostility the public directs at criminal Wall St Banksters, JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs etc., chief honcho of JP Morgan, Jamie Dimon, openly apologised for wrong doings – “self inflicted mistakes” (O, really!) -- and admitted that certain practices the Bank engaged in were unprincipled – understatement of the year!

Terminal 21st Century Capitalism posted by James Petras via stan, 2012-05-10 08:19:45
The economic, political and social outlook for the second decade of the 21st century is profoundly negative. The almost universal consensus, even among mainstream orthodox economists, is pessimistic regarding the world economy. (full story)

 Paternalistic, "Disrespectful" Oz Federal Police "Expelled" from Vanuatu posted by staff report via baz, 2012-05-10 00:19:23
Australia's version of the FBI has been right royally kicked out of Pacific Island nation, Vanuatu. It seems racist, moron Australia has yet to learn RESPECT, especially when on foreign soil. Commodore Frank Bainimarama of Fiji may have some advice for Vanuatu's PM and I'm sure China would be extremely happy to assist in any diplomatic, financial and investment capacity -- you dunce Oz, incompetent (Gillard) government! Yankee overlords will not be happy, Juliar! (full story)

AUSTERITY for WHOM? posted by sandman, 2012-05-04 00:01:29
Economic Austerity programs are designed for the enslaved masses, yes that's right, the average or common people; have you seen bankers or corporate directors/CEOs or other elite rogues under any austerity pressures or 'doing it tough' economically? Not on YOUR life, corrupt elite cabals SHOWER themselves in money and benefits at YOUR expense simply because they can -- and YOU do NOTHING about the GROSS injustices, screaming double standards and gaping disparities, you disgraceful, spineless, shit-eaters!

The Distasteful Business of Banking posted by shyluck, 2012-04-28 09:07:23
No surprises here; banks will stop at nothing to increase their bottom line? Using new software packages designed to assess when existing customers/clients are at their most vulnerable, banks hope to sell more products and increase client debt. But what of the moral issue of taking unfair advantage of the public? Whatever happened to protecting the public interest? O, that's right, bank serving Juliar 'carbon tax' Gillard became PM!
