The Mafia Has Nothing on Wall Street Banks

Link to article

"We have arrived at a terrible place. The government no longer exists for the people, but to prey on the people. Petty crimes without victims are cracked down upon with police state brutality. Corporations, banks in particular, are calling all the shots, and they openly defy a legal system that no longer applies to them.

   To make it worse, the corporations are being run by insane gamblers who seem determined to destroy everything in order to satisfy their gambling fix.

   Things are so broken that comparisons to the late Roman Empire no longer seem like hyperbole.  The system is long past the point of being able to fix itself. No amount of regulators will change things if the regulators won't uphold the law. No amount of fines will change things if the fines are only token amounts, without prosecutions. Only a determined, global, grassroots movement willing to defy police repression can change the system.

   Unfortunately I just don't see it happening."
