Unaccountability is institutionalized. Crisis conditions remain unresolved. Much worse ahead looms. Expect Geithner to return to his ideological roots. He's heading back to Wall Street. Expect him to cash in for services rendered.
Days before he left, he called his bailout scheme doomed to be unpopular. "You look like you're giving aid to the arsonist," he said.
He claims history will judge him more kindly. He turned reality on its head. He wrecked the economy. He claims he saved it. He didn't avoid a Great Depression. He caused one.
He didn't save millions of jobs. He destroyed them. He engineered fake financial reform. He capitulated to Wall Street. He avoided real change. He advanced global monetary control. He did it at the expense of fairness.
He took advantage of a corrupted system. It's crisis-prone, unstable, anarchic, ungovernable, and self-destructive. It repeats boom and bust cycles.
Crooks run monetary and fiscal policy. Recessions and depressions follow. Ordinary people are hurt most. Bankers and other financial giants profit enormously. Add money laundering to their profit centers.
Money power controls America. Policy facilitates grand theft. Too big to fail banks consolidate. They become larger and more powerful.
They game the system for profit. They gamble with public money. They wage financial war on humanity. Massive fraud facilitates private gain. Reform is a figure of speech.
