Rubin's Rubixon

[IdesOfOctober]

Corporatist news outlets have taken to mentioning http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=robert+rubin+clinton">Robert Rubin in various possible roles within a potential Clinton III.

These mentions are always full of praise, as if the Second Coming of Rubin would cure all ills.

Rubin's Rubix of perfectly-choreographed deregulation, pro-corporate two steps, and nimbly-orchestrated bailouts is not a game that is rigged for Main Street, but rather, for Wall Street and the main thoroughfares of places like Dubai.

As http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=robert+rubin+citigroup">Director and Chair of Citi, Rubin openly declared himself and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crossing_the_Rubicon#Synonyms">crossed the Rubicon to defy the interests of the Republic.

Only this time, the Republic's loyal defenders were forewarned and ready.
