19. Yes, bipartisanship to derail the protections of Glass-Steagall, moreso from the GOP, nonetheless,

this is why we are the 99% fighting for survival. Same problems, different generation. It's amazing to minimally
research the subject and similarities are right in your face. Not by accident, but deliberate orchestration.

The whole system is corrupt, we've been, and continue to be played by a conscienceless banking system enabled by gov't, designed to squeeze out profits from the unknowing masses. Just one direction of the big squeeze. Not one aspect of our lives has been left untouched, which is why gov't does not like transparency. Lied to and brought to war for the profiteers, among other lies.

It is now easy to see who truly represent We The People....a small number....because there were and are pockets to be filled and there is no consequences for the thieves at the highest levels. But, since we are here on DU, we know this by now.

The hatred for big gov't is skewed, the hatred should be directed at the corruption and manipulation of a gov't that's been deliberately honed to ignore rule of law. Transparency...where there is none, there is corruption. The corruption is so massive, it will take a tsunami to clean it out.
