(10,539 posts)release of the of the findings at 9:00 p.m., none response to the property damage and fires, and police being careful not engage protestors to look bad themselves, was orchestrated to make the protestors to be the bad guys!
Our country as we knew it is lost! This is not hyperbole, BP has bribed the Plaintiff's Steering Committee (friends of the Judge who appointed them) with a $660,000,000 "Common Benefit Fund" if they make sure that this one-sided, terrible, Class Action Settlement goes to completion without being overturned. BP spends so much in advertising that the media will not report the truth or follow up.
Wall Street got off Scott Free for the largest swindle of all time, crashing the global economy in the process and being paid their losses by the tax payers they screwed. No mention of re-instituting Glass-Stegall.
Politicians representing Donors instead of Constituents with the media complicit in it all. You pay off the Congress and they write what you want in the way of laws/regulations!
The media distorts, omits, distracts, and can legally lie to us. Gone are the days when the government required 30 minutes of news, real honest news! They have consolidated into an Oligarchy, but no talk of busting them up and they control the message. They have whipped up Partisianship and pretend that what our supposed elected officials do in Congress is on the level and a real battle, when it is also an orchestrated game to make us believe it is all real!
We elect most of our Judges so there goes your justice. Activist judges and justices abound without repercussion for clearly partisian rulings.
Our tax dollars go to the 1% while they starve the regulatory agencies in charge of keeping them honest and us safe!
Meanwhile, most of our fellow citizens are in their glamour, or to apathetic to do anything about the massive, all encompassing, corruption. I will not give up, but sometimes I feel I am the one tilting at windmills. I am glad for the ones here at DU that see through all of this shit too! Never give up and keep spreading the word! Don't fall for their crap of voting for the most electable Democrat when you know they are owned by the Plutocrats, just to avoid the evil Republican Bogeyman, it's all still their game, their rules, and their players! Go for the ones who don't take the corporate money EVERYTIME!!!!!
Happy Thanksgiving I hope!
