Thanks Larry...They did the same thing with the housing finance stuff...they got a loophole to work through..then they closed it, so nobody else could pull that off...and then they called it 'reform'.. everybody is relieved, and applauds..and then on top of it, with a new song and dance, that was hailed by one party or the other, they got bailouts, to boot!...and ever since they've been ducking and weaving, and got the parties into pointing fingers, as such on here...and they just walk away. NOBODY was charged with anything!!!

The 'right' will tell you, it was to 'stimulate the housing market', on behalf of the investors, the left will tell you that it was making housing 'affordable' to everyone, everybody claps for their side, and boos the other..the debate goes on, then withers..too boring...not 'entertaining' enough....the market bubble pops, we're left holding the bag, while the economy tanks, all those builders of homes go broke, out of work...and now the corporations have to 'find' a 'remedy'...which, in reality is just a set up, nearing the final scam....and the ideologues clap like a bunch of barking sea lions, bobbing on a buoy, trying to call attention to how wise they are, and why we should listen to them!.........Meanwhile poverty grows..but that's OK with the manipulators.......all you have to do is convince them to turn in their guns, (or their neighbors), and the threat of any resistance is a comfort to them!
Now I'm not in anyway promoting any violent act, anywhere..but just describing their motives and paths we've been traveling on...and BOTH sides will debate it, and what party does what, may yet to be divied-up, or assigned, as to obscure what they've been up to, and where it's coming from....but, what they're doing, is they filter who's to support what, through the most compliant party....and the rank and file party devotee, may be sincere, as I'm sure some here are...but in reality, they have been sincerely deceived, and quieted, and beaten down.
Am I still making sense, Larry??..All you have to do is stop rationalizing blame away, and watch the events go down, through all the very planned distractions!

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, the privately owned 'Federal Reserve' will print up some more, non-backed, fiat money, ...ahhh sigh of relief....and charge us interest, to pay for the game they've been hoodwinking and scamming us with...Pretty slick, eh?

Monsanto is just one of the crowd of big boys..so they get the benefits of the available government covering.
It's not rocket science...it only seems that way, because they try to keep people stupid, as not to connect the dots!!!

Anyway, have a great night...I might be up for a bit more...between practice sessions.
