75 Yr old Wall Streeter: "There will be prosecutions & show trials & violence-mark my words"

[RainDog]

68. the violence the mortgage bankers have put upon the American people

however, goes unremarked.

I suppose it's not violence for people to live in their cars, for children to have no home from which to attend school, for people to have no jobs that pay a living wage.

all over the internet you can read comments by bastards who state that the only way out of the current crisis is for American wage earners to get to the point at which their wages are competitive with the Chinese who are locked into work ghettos at night.

excuse me if I don't worry about the Koch brothers or Limbaugh the Walton family or McConnell and on and on who have the money to pay for bodyguards to protect them from their own actions while mothers have to decide whether to go to the doctor for an illness or feed their children.

the reality is that these abusers have had years to come to terms with the damage they have done and try to do the right thing. instead, they have demonstrated that they do not care one bit about human suffering - instead, they welcome it as a financial or political opportunity for themselves.

so, honestly, while I won't be the one creating violence, I won't shed one tear for those who have created this mess.

They will be reaping what they have sown.

But the truth of it all is that those who have the least will still be the ones who suffer the most.
