It's called "The Shock Doctrine" by Naomi Klein. It will knock your socks off. It's about the rise of disaster capitalism!
You just wouldn't believe the stuff that goes on .. and has gone on since Reagan at lease if not before. Look out for the Chicago boys and Milton Friedman's economics.
Okay don't want to give anything away.. but what this book does is connect the dots....like "follow the money" and the "turmoil". I was wondering why there were so much unrest around the world.. now I know why.. we're there!

Two more months.. of
chest leading, butt strutting, arrogant Bush! Oh yeah - "If we decide on any important changes we'll be sure to let newly elected Obama know!" Oh please - you idiot! We are in the time of crisis and now is not the time to be so arrogant or try to act like you really know what the hell is going on! He's the epitome of ignorance!
They should be working together and Obama in on the decisions for these next sixty days. Why is there a lap anyway! Shouldn't the new president take over immediately? And not allow time for the old to disrupt and destruct - any further - in this case!
Just another attempt at draining the well dry before they leave - just to see if they can get anymore to stuff in their pockets! Greed should be imprisoned - of course that would include the whole of this past republican circus! Talk about a bunch of smart ass crooks! And arrogant! It's black mail for one thing - much less a "hold-up"! "Give us all the money our we'll take the whole economy down with us! Pretty smart actually! Is that more of "shock and awe" tactics?
I'm reading the "The Shock Doctrine" The Rise of Disaster Capitalism by Naomi Klein
Yeah the crooks are being pretty sophisticated in greedy plans to rip off the American taxpayer!
Instead of bailing out everyone at the top - who are already rich and should put back into the companies. I'm talking about CEO top heavy not shareholders! What the government should do is demand that corporations bring back good paying jobs so build our economy. Oh the hell with it!
The hell with oil. Plastics can be made out of corn syrup - didn't you know? Maybe this economical correction is the best thing yet! A fresh start at new "green" 21st century jobs where American can lead the way "out" of war for oil - and greed over oil! Please! The hell with the oil - let's go air, wind, solar for electrical power.
How about people getting honest for change and stop trying to rip people off or taking advantage of people's loses for corporate gain! What a bunch of ass holes! As a nation; as a people - we should do not have much to be proud of!
Imagine people working like dogs at low paying stupid jobs - the only ones left - to rip off other people - to treat people - to rob people!
Just another Neal Bush dirty Savings and Loan scandal! The Bush dynasty has been the worse yet. I thought Nixon was a down right "let's ripp'em off crook!". Reagan was no better.. chiseling away at safe guarding regulations - oh they knew it was to rip off the American people and an attempt to fool people and the economy for a while till the end of their term and then leave the next fool with all the mess! Of course McCain would have only continued on with the mess - he's no economist! This isn't a joke! Obama has an economic education that is much needed in this time of crisis. He has a clue - Bush is as dumb as this flower pot I'm sitting next to! An insult to the American public! Fool! Like we weren't aware of the things, the actual planning and shock and awe that lead us into a monetary war for oil and Halliburton products!
It all started with crooked Enron - Ken Lay - Bush's friend. Yeah he deceased alright! I got a bridge to no-way I'll sell you on that one! Yeah, take the money and run without penalty without punishment; not so even a hand slap! While millions of people lose their monetary futures; their hope and dreams!
But, when you are a big shot you can do what you want and it doesn't matter how many toes you step on - as long as you can do what you want - and get rich - and feel powerful - and buy what you want - to show off and appear successful to impress people - because people really give a crap about you - and forget it! You are not fooling anyway!
A good, Christian, decent person who at least take the money and help others out with it! A decent person is not ruthless and destructive to other's. What ever happened to ethics, honor and pride? In my mind - they are all a bunch of losers riding on the phoning bible fiction - it's all fiction! Written by mere mortals!
So, let's hope some of these jerks get some pride about themselves. Money certainly can't buy you health, respect or honor!
What a bunch of losers! Get those suckers off of Capitol Hill and take all those 34,000 losing lobbyist with you! Please!
Talk about another forest of crookery - thievery! The drug companies - inventing diseases to fulfil their own drug prescription needs! Pretty amazing! My friend has her own Lipitor story.. and now even off the drug she still doesn't feel right!
Yes, it pays to read and research.. but in today's sick economy (because we were allowed to be cheated and robbed) most people have to work two or three jobs to make ends meet (oh yeah it was very important that the rich - get rich! Who ever heard of CEO's making 800 times more than then their employees. Where I come from that is called embezzlement!
They should be working together and Obama in on the decisions for these next sixty days. Why is there a lap anyway! Shouldn't the new president take over immediately? And not allow time for the old to disrupt and destruct - any further - in this case!

Too bad...
Obama can't just step up to the plate now and get moving on home foreclosures and stimulus packages for the average tax payer. Paulson is a Bush/Cheney agent and you know once again nothing will get accomplished for us.. only the rich. If only Obama could go to work right now.
In fact I think it's "their" last ditch effort to drain our economy and the average tax payer totally dry before "they" leave office!
Obama would have had an incentive package out here by now and he would create helpful ways for people missing house payments to save their home. But most importantly Obama by now would have the wheels in motion for a "green" environment and economy.
This evening on PBS, I believe, there will be a documentary about prescription drugs in our tap water. Probably from what we pee more than them being dumped down the drain. It is said that our filter systems only clear out so much! Ugh! And they don't want us drinking bottled water either saying there are PBR (or whatever) in the plastic that contaminates the water.
Oh woe are we! We do need a conscientious president. Bush is an idiot! All Bush and Cheney and H. W knew to do was remove regulation and restrictions and stipulations that protected the average tax payer and opened the 'greed" door for banks, finance companies with sub-prime rate loans practically forced on people with "car salesman like techniques".
So, can we possibly hang on - can the economy - hang on for sixty days? I certainly hope so! My intuition tells me the market will rebound bullistly like gang busters once it gets going. I believe that Obama will product incentives for medium size corporations and businesses to get "green" and our economy will not only survive but thrive!

Rachel
What a refreshing sight on TV.. Keith Oberman - go home! You stink! Who are you trying to be Jon Steward or Colbert..and Chris.. go ome Keith.. it's not appealing
Why do you have to be loud and forceful and ugh!
I want more of Rachel...Now's she's pleasant on the eyes and hears and is a Rhodes scholar I hear. And as cute as can be! She's the best! And she's not an egotistical smartass. She doesn't drown out people. And have you ever notices.. she appoligizes if it's call for.. you'll never hear a man do that - for anything. It's always someone's fault! Ugh!

blungering idiots
in Washington seem to be bumping into each other.. and no one is knowing who's doing what or what to do next?
Of course Republicans are adamating in favor of only helping CEO's and larger businesses...you know the ones who got us into this trouble anyway by there greedy creative methods of ripping off the American tax payer. But Republicans don't deal with us pions only big shot crooks in Washington and on Wall Street.
So guess that's not going to well so today Paulson said money is going to banks and brokerage.. not sure now. But it's all very scary.
I think China got a bail out and their market's went to health! The whole world economy is going to hell.
Thomas L. Friedman who wrote "Flat, warm and crowded" thinks we should not bail out the American auto companies. Why? Because they spent most of their profits on ads trying to get Americans in big gas guzzlers when the could have used that money to develop new hybrids (that got decent mileage)and electric plug in cars.
Let's face it.. the Republicans have made the biggest mess in history during the whole eight years and now that they have set up this miserable mess they are "bailing"! What a bunch of losers and masters of greedy lobbyist.. I hope they are all happy while America starves? What a bunch of crooks. Them alone with their big shot buddy CEO's picking profits in their pockets.. and bail out money too, I'm sure.. Well, they go unregulated so it's a free for well!
The president's job is to monitor and regulate and set restrictions and make sure people are treated propering and without treatery.. but of course Republicans only work for people of money! Bush is the worse pesident I think I have ever seen!
If he was a man, I mean a man - he would work with Obama now to get things in place to help the tax payers of this country.. the poor who are losing their money, homes, and jobs. What kind of an idiot is this man? He hasn't a clue! And no I don't fee sorry for him.. being the president is not some silly game you get into to one up your brother or to please your daddy! Daddy too was pissed because he lost to Clinton and then spent the whole eight years trying to tear Clinton down. And daddy Bush was pissed because he couldn't get Saddam Hussien.. so junior thinks he's going to get in there and save the day and be a big shot to his daddy. Trust me Cheney was running the show for daddy.. anyway what a mess! No one wins here. Well except big shot daddy's friends CEO crooks.. because since Reagan de-regulations and no over sight or restrictions lead the way.. and CEO's had a free for all and took the money and ran. This stuff went on way back when with Enron and Stupid Bush didn't have a clue!
Seems Paulson doesn't have a clue either. No wonder other countries hate us... for our "let bankers, CEO's and wall street run amok" attitude.
A president is supposed to over see, regulate and restrict the amount of money CEO people can make! It's not that hard to figure out Bush.... When lobbyist demand you merely say "NO!" So now we're in this mess that this last administration has created. Clinton left things in fine shape desspire all the crap Republicans tried to dish out and Bush managed in only 8 years to place this economy in near disaster! What fools!
Yes, the big three spent all their money trying to brain wash men mostly into living like their daddys and driving stupid retro gas guzzlers. What fools? What oil fools? This is the 21st century.. act like it! Cars need to be smaller.. we look ignorant and foolish. Like we don't give a damn about the environment.. like we don't give a damn about bundling and shipping off bad debt, knowing I might add, to other countries. How a bunch of losers... I'm actually feeling hoplessliess and embarrassed! All I have to say is that they better gets their acts together and work together.. and stop acting like stupid idiots and fix this mess! Instead they are probably all scambling around like a bunch of chickens trying to suck out the last dollar they can for themselves.
Joe lieberman is an embarrassment!

Pushing statin.. even onto people with normal
cholesterol! See the USA article below. Sure trying to push the sell of statins aren't they? See they are degrading Vitamins,, they want people to rather buy statins.. you know the drug companies..the greedy drug companies.. I heard the drug company head of the FDA (talk about double dipping or conflict of interest)wants to put all supplement under the control of the FDA. I guess they want to get all the money they can.. probably charge an arm and leg for them too! Hey Obama we need corporate oversight and regulations put back into play.. promto! Let's build up what Bush torn down.. fast.. before it destroys the global economy! Is that reason to call it treason? yet?
So here's the article I was talking about....if the drug companies had it their way every people alive would be on some kind of prescription drug.. well, give them time, they'll invent a few more diseases.. hey, how many times have you peed today.. over eight? Then you need a pill! (doesn't matter if you drank a ton of coffee - that's no excuse.. you need a pill I'm saying)! Gosh darn it!
By Elizabeth Weise, USA TODAY
An eight-year study of more than 14,000 male physicians found that taking vitamin C and vitamin E did not prevent cardiovascular disease.
The findings for vitamin C are not surprising given the results of numerous studies that reached the same conclusion, says Howard Sesso, a professor at Harvard Medical School and lead author of the study. It will be published Wednesday in the Journal of the American Medical Association.
STATINS: Help even in those with normal cholesterol, study showsBETTER LIFE: More on heart health
But the findings for vitamin E are new because this was the first large, strictly controlled study to assess the supplement and how it affects the heart and blood vessels, Sesso says.
The men enrolled in the Physicians' Health Study II were broken into four groups, which were given vitamin C and a placebo, vitamin E and a placebo, C and E together, and placebo only. The dosages were 500 milligrams of vitamin C daily and 400 international units of vitamin E every other day. There were about 3,600 men in each group.
When results were assessed, it was found that neither C nor E had an effect on what the researchers call "major cardiovascular events," which include heart attacks, stroke or death.
The study results might seem disappointing for consumers, "but we actually feel this is important from a public health standpoint, given the frequency of these vitamins' use without having good data," Sesso says.
The hope that vitamins C and E might help prevent cardiovascular disease came from both animal and test-tube studies in which the antioxidants had shown heart benefits. There are also studies of people who followed diets rich in these vitamins and who also took supplements.
Annette Dickinson, former president of the Council for Responsible Nutrition, a supplement industry group, says the findings point to the need to place supplements in a context in which consumers are also taking other steps toward a healthful life.
"You pull a nutrient out of the whole diet context and you don't see the same effects," she says.
Dickinson says more research is needed to determine whether a higher dose or different form of vitamin E would be more effective.

Keynesian economics....
interesting! Now I know what it is
Named after John Maynard Keynes. And I"m quoting from
http://www.investorwords.com/2693/Keynesian_Economics.html
"
Keynesian Economics definition named for economist John Maynard Keynes. An economic theory wich advocates government intervention, or demand-side management of the economy, to achieve full employment and stable prices."
I agree, government should regulate and over see and intervene if necessary in wall street business transactions and activites. There should be auditors checking the books when a company goes public to protect investors. It's only reasonable. But, lobbyist wanted regulations extremely reduced and this govenment having the responsbility to protect the tax payers.. turned their backs and added a blind eye to fraudulent, unethical and corrupttion by companies. My opinion: You can't open the gate and not expect the carrle to roam freely!
In my opinon the offenses when hand in hand. Conservatives weren't going their jobs and Bush did not sign off several times when Democrats tried to past a bill to raise minimum wage! Just what was Bush thinking? And he tries to dissolve unions too! Of course businesses do not want taxes raises, or wages raised or have to content with unions but look at teh results of de-regulations through the republicans years in office.. every body is going belly up!
For the past eight years people were forced to charge more onto credit cards.. well, that's clue number one that people cannot make enough to keep up with the raising cost of everything - but wages!
The major fault by government is to not over see and audio public companies but instead let them run amok and big shot CEO's ran off with all the money.. so share holders got nothing and employees even less.
In just six months alone a half a million jobs have been lost! Because the economy was allowed to run with out over sight.. and one company had no idea what another was doing.. or maybe they did.. and they were top-dogging it see who could get more money faster.. who could own the most trophies in way of jets, houses, whatever, big shot CEO egotistical maniacs buy?
Our government is at fault here for turning the Federal Reserve, FDA and everything else over to the capitalist corporate heads themselves. Bush open the door and let the foxes into the hen house - he invited with de-regulation favors to lobbyist!
I believe Bush is the worse president I have ever seen.. but really daddy Bush knew W was an idiot and so his main men were Cheney and Rove.. let's clean house I guess they thoughts.. get attacked, make up an excuse, never find the guy.. probably one of the team! All to get a foot hold in oil country and especially bases all over the Middle East to protect our "interest" there (oil).
I wonder what really will happen when Obama tries to get us off of oil! I see already the oil people are advertising they are getting in on the "green" deal.. they'll just use lip service and stall like they have been doing for the past 40 years.
To my knowledge there has been no move away from fossil fuel or their use in making plastics for just about everything we use. You know you really never hear that end of it do you? About the plastics? So, see the DVD: "The Oil Factor" The story behind the terrorist attack! You can order through Netflix. Very interesting!
Yeah we'll get more lip out of the oil companies.. and are the American car companies really going under or is everyone waiting in line for a free hand out, I mean bail out, by the government.. so the big shot CEO's can be allowed to stick that in their pockets too - again without regulations or over sight!
I just can't believe the all around crooks we have had in Washington and on wall street.. betting on eocnomic futures.hedge funds, bundling of bad debt and shipping it off to foreign markets...nothing like bringing every body down. I guess the big shot CEO with all the money they stuffed in their pockets before the shit hit the fan are off on some tropical isle basting in the sun. Most of them probably are not even in this country anymore.. well, they have about ruined us (just like idiot Bush) then they just go off somewhere after they have done their damage.. again, they are not held accountable either. I guess if Nancy Peloski and Barney Frank went after the wrong doers in businessess they would have to go after the Bushes, all three, and the rest of the cronies.. they'll probably are not enough jails to hold them all.
I'd say things started going sour with Ken Lay, Bush's Enron buddy. Well, isn't it funny how he conveniently died right before he was scheduled to go to trail...you know he would have drugged in members of the white house.. they were friends.. you know! But, I suspect, he probably is hiding away on some island with all those people's futures in his pockets.. while the poor smucks he left behind to struggle are still struggling. Why? Just how much money do these poor excuses for humans need?

For the past eight years people were forced to charge more onto credit cards.. well, that's clue number one that people cannot make enough to keep up with the raising cost of everything - but wages!
The major fault by government is to not over see and audio public companies but instead let them run amok and big shot CEO's ran off with all the money.. so share holders got nothing and employees even less.
In just six months alone a half a million jobs have been lost! Because the economy was allowed to run with out over sight.. and one company had no idea what another was doing.. or maybe they did.. and they were top-dogging it see who could get more money faster.. who could own the most trophies in way of jets, houses, whatever, big shot CEO egotistical maniacs buy?
Our government is at fault here for turning the Federal Reserve, FDA and everything else over to the capitalist corporate heads themselves. Bush open the door and let the foxes into the hen house - he invited with de-regulation favors to lobbyist!
I believe Bush is the worse president I have ever seen.. but really daddy Bush knew W was an idiot and so his main men were Cheney and Rove.. let's clean house I guess they thoughts.. get attacked, make up an excuse, never find the guy.. probably one of the team! All to get a foot hold in oil country and especially bases all over the Middle East to protect our "interest" there (oil).
I wonder what really will happen when Obama tries to get us off of oil! I see already the oil people are advertising they are getting in on the "green" deal.. they'll just use lip service and stall like they have been doing for the past 40 years.
To my knowledge there has been no move away from fossil fuel or their use in making plastics for just about everything we use. You know you really never hear that end of it do you? About the plastics? So, see the DVD: "The Oil Factor" The story behind the terrorist attack! You can order through Netflix. Very interesting!
Yeah we'll get more lip out of the oil companies.. and are the American car companies really going under or is everyone waiting in line for a free hand out, I mean bail out, by the government.. so the big shot CEO's can be allowed to stick that in their pockets too - again without regulations or over sight!
I just can't believe the all around crooks we have had in Washington and on wall street.. betting on eocnomic futures.hedge funds, bundling of bad debt and shipping it off to foreign markets...nothing like bringing every body down. I guess the big shot CEO with all the money they stuffed in their pockets before the shit hit the fan are off on some tropical isle basting in the sun. Most of them probably are not even in this country anymore.. well, they have about ruined us (just like idiot Bush) then they just go off somewhere after they have done their damage.. again, they are not held accountable either. I guess if Nancy Peloski and Barney Frank went after the wrong doers in businessess they would have to go after the Bushes, all three, and the rest of the cronies.. they'll probably are not enough jails to hold them all.
I'd say things started going sour with Ken Lay, Bush's Enron buddy. Well, isn't it funny how he conveniently died right before he was scheduled to go to trail...you know he would have drugged in members of the white house.. they were friends.. you know! But, I suspect, he probably is hiding away on some island with all those people's futures in his pockets.. while the poor smucks he left behind to struggle are still struggling. Why? Just how much money do these poor excuses for humans need?
