Bigworld, Here's where the real money went (see below). It wasn't social programs or even military spending -- it went to bail out the zombie banks and their derivatives -


$16 TRILLION since 2008 to bail out the banking cartel's derivatives -



- Citigroup got - $2.5 Trillion

- Morgan Stanley got - $2.04 Trillion

- Merrill Lynch got - $1.949 Trillion

- Bank of America got - $1.344 Trillion

- Foreign banks got over - $3 Trillion



The above figures are from the Congressional 'one time audit' of the Fed -

(There is a common denominator to both but I'll leave you to figure it out lest I be called a racist.)



Big, It's funny, but before you said that, I jumped to the same conclusion. And they wonder why there's profiling????

I don't know what can be done to save this country? I grew up in a mixed-race community in NJ in the 60s-70s. I, a white guy, was in the minority. In my experience, I drew some conclusions: About 90% of the majority race were good people, with reasonable manners and intelligence. But, the other 10% were real stupid, violent, ignorant, morally-bankrupt scumbags. These people were always looking for a way to "get over". They were lazy and criminal, and felt no remorse. They have the mentality that they are owed something, and see nothing wrong with taking what they didn't earn. If that's our future, we should leave them the rudderless, sinking ship, so they can drown.

It's too bad the other 90% get profiled as a result of the bad 10%, but those bad apples are far worse than any other race I ever encountered. Am I racist for noticing and commenting? I don't think so. I'm willing to call a spade a spade. I am leading a personal war against political correctness.

What happened where I grew up, is eventually the white people left the public school system. The community is relatively affluent, but has become somewhat segregated. Is that the future for this country?

It may be, because whites get skewered for speaking the truth when it comes to race. There are some people that can not be reasoned with. They are morally bankrupt and would steal whatever they can, with no regards for anybody's else's rights. A lot of them are a certain race. We are not allowed to call them out, or we face their gang mentality and retaliation.

It's time to stop giving bad behavior, from a certain race, a pass. None of us alive today had anything to do with the terrible way their ancestors were treated. Let's end that rift once and for all.

And to anybody that thinks me a racist, reread this post. I never mentioned the race directly. But, I'll bet every one of you know exactly which race I'm referring to. Does that make YOU a racist???????
