Thompson 11443@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>I'll tell you what, though, Mr Plucky: Wall Street's blackmail - intended to prevent the passage of legislation which would regulate trading and banking - has shown that you can throw all the trillions you like at exotic derivatives and "mortgage backed" securities, exotic insurance schemes and so forth - you will never (ever!) solve the debt overhang unless you do as Wall Street wants. And what do they want? </p> <p>They want to dripfeed on tax revenues, via the IMF, and we can all go hang. We might as well cut to the chase and do to them what they want to do to us. First. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=4022#post-11428 Fri, 07 May 2010 21:55:51 +0000 Hunter F.

Thompson 11398@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>....With US indebtedness in the countless Trillionii, it makes sense that Wall Street paper is worthless. Angels dancing on the head of a pin, beside the debt overhang. For moment it does seem as though Mr Mickey McMarket got it right: zero demand. Wall paper. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=4022#post-11397 Fri, 07 May 2010 17:00:17 +0000 Hunter F.
