...or will America simply shrug?

1. Perhaps more to the point

Will the bernank be willing to face the gallows by trying to bail his bankster buds out a second time?

At this stage, me thinks it's a toss-up as to whether the whole crime sydicate is coming to the realization that the game has gone on as far as it can. In udder words, there is going to be a massive throwing of bodies into the path of the bus.

Or, they will try to circle the wagons in a vain attempt to dodge the arrows.

Either way, our European neighbors will be setting the table and be waiting for America to WTFU.
YMMV

3. You're right. I have no money (left) in the markets so I'm just an observer at this point but

I also wonder how much longer the smoke and mirrors will go on.

Since multiple layoffs, etc., I have no stake left but I'm hoping this time it will at least be the end of monopolies again and re-installing actual oversight and regulations; for my kids sake.

2. Do you see another bail-out in the future?

And taxpayer-backed bonuses for the participants?

4. No idea at this point of US government operations, nothing would surprise me. Just sad that Obama

will be affected in the elections because of stupid voters who will blame him for anything that happened/happens during his term and the out-and-out liars that will place that blame.
