In reply to the discussion: I will be having Breakfast with President Obama Tomorrow (Labor Day) [View all]forest444
(5,902 posts)24. Huzzah, Louis!
Please consider bringing up the subject of vulture funds to the President. It can't be that a few Cayman Islands launderers are allowed to hold bondholders hostage in both sovereign cases (notably Argentina, which had been paying its bondholders religiously for 10 years until an extremist -probably bribed- Nixon judge stopped their payments last year) and corporate cases (Delphi Automotive, Caesar's Entertainment) to extort the issuers out of a 1600% payout or more.
It's criminal shakedown, pure and simple - besides which it's being done by some of the biggest donors to the Tea Party and GOP.
Have a great presidential breakfast, Louis! All the best.
