From Paul Krugman:
For there’s a populist rage building in this country, and President Obama’s kid-gloves treatment of the bankers has put Democrats on the wrong side of this rage. If Congressional Democrats don’t take a tough line with the banks in the months ahead, they will pay a big price in November.
And if there should be a shitty health care bill passed that forces people to buy into something that favors the corporations over "we the people" not many dims will be elected anywhere. That can be taken to da bank!
Posted by: One Fly on January 8, 2010 12:34 PMNow we have Lying Lieberman and Insane McCain in the news. Flash. One ran for vice president for the Democrats and the other ran for president for the Republicans. Both are senators.
Now Krugman is trying to understand "populist rage?"
Obviously the american voters did not want either one of them.
We have an incompetent as president in our times of troubles, who does not seem to give a rat's ass about why he was elected. He is trying to be the king with the bank robbers and stock jobbers as earls and dukes.
How is the rage of the voters not simple to understand, Mr Krugman?
A little of the old impeachment might do a little good. Eh? Fire his sorry ass, fool. Then trial and imprisonment. Biden's a joke to me but how can he piss me off more?

But what I wanted to say is that another shadow banking system is PayPal. It ought to be under FDIC.
