(11,204 posts)There is ZERO chance of breaking up the banks without a massive change in our politics.
The only weapon we have against these megalomaniac banksters is FEAR. They do fear us, the mob. They go to extraordinary lengths to avoid any proper contact with human beings. Private planes and helicopters. Chauffeured limos. Executive elevators that do not stop on anything but their office and their private garage. Private estates with walls and security guards. I would bet that I make more human contact in one morning than Jamie Dimon does in a year.
We need to go to their private estates and protest outside their gates. We need to set up homeless camps on the country roads to their gated compounds. We need to disrupt their privacy and confront them with what they and their policies of greed have wrought.
Dimon. Blankfein. Fuld. Paulson.
These should be the new faces of a 21st century Mount Rushmore, only instead of carved in granite, they should be hung in effigy!
We are dealing with people who no longer are fellow citizens...they are in reality no different to us than King George was to the colonials at the time of the revolution....aloof, distant, non-engaged and perceiving themselves above the fray...
The time is coming when the only option left is armed insurrection. The Tea Party is 99% insane, but there is one thing in them that I do admire....ANGER. They are easily misled and direct that anger at the wrong targets, but at least they have a pulse.
Third way democrats make me puke. They are enablers and co-conspirators and they will go down in history the way the loyalist colonials did in the 18th century...as traitors to their own nation.
Start by rattling the bastards where they live. Boycott their companies and the companies that refuse to divest from them. Use all available non-violent means for as long as we can for sure. but be prepared for the fact that without a credible threat of actually killing them, changes in their behavior are not forthcoming. We either force change upon them or we get what they deem we are collectively worth....which is less and less by the year.
