These are the architects of this massive ponzi scheme









Through crafty credit manipulation the sub prime "squatter cartel" seized the reigns of financial power to exploit the innocent naivete of our most noble citizens.




Speaking from what can only be seen as a banker hovel. "How can they do this to us"?




How did it happen? Well Dr Li apparently was led astray by a what is know as the copula formula written on a dirty napkin. A member of the squatter cartel posing as a bank employee handed him this mesmerizing swindle. This unknown agent smelled of garbage and was seen eating out of a dumpster.

"We were helpless, we just kept loaning other people's money and paying ourselves bonuses as we watched ourselves in an almost in a sort of parabolic orbit" .


Another banker with his hands in his face just said "They took everything until we threw them out. We had other people build houses for them with good enough non-union and Mexican illegal contractors, now all we have is the money from the last 20 years".



Who are they? How did they do it? Somewhere in there are the master minds of the greatest swindle of all time.

Either be exploited, or exploit someone else.

What? No, those aren't the only two options.

Once again a tiny few elitist, "greed is good" capitalist, robber barons have brought suffering to billions and once again their insatiable greed must be cut off at the knees like it was during the railroad and oil monopolies. If nothing else this shows what an unbridled con game capitalism is and how vital regulatory cops are to control these con artists.

What I was referring to was the Golden Rule " Do unto others as you wish to have done unto you". I think a person can try to live a life of honor and integrity without being a wimp and/or pushover. Of course there will always be people like Madoff and his ilk preying on people but that doesn't mean the rest of us have to sink to their level. I guess to some this sounds naive and pollyannish but at the end of the day you have to be able to look yourself in the mirror.
