Bernanke and Paulson are liars. That is beyond doubt. They are ripoff, fractional reserve banking, regulatory cartelizing, welfare for the rich stealing, con-men technocrats.
And sadly the only people who keep buying their lies, are the mainstream media and the representatives of the people in Congress. This is why democracy fails. Positions of representation or leadership inevitably attract the least qualified people, typically the best liars and schmoozers.
Morons like Chris Dodd, who has banks like Countrywide write his signature legislation, while patting him on the back with sweetheart deals.
One man continues to speak truth to power. Ron Paul. CNN actually gave him a column today.
Even Democrat Radio Host Bill Press is on the “Stop the Bailout” bandwagon now. From an email I received this morning,
No Bailout! Make One Call.
202-224-3121
Call the US Capitol. Ask to speak to your Congressman or Senator – and tell them…
NO BAILOUT! NO BLANK CHECK!
George Bush is demanding a blank check.
Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson is demanding a $700 billion bailout of Wall Street.
And Democrats in Congress must deliver both by Friday, September 26, they say – or else.
To which Democrats should respond: No, no, no!
We gave Bush a blank check after September 11. We gave him another blank check for the war in Iraq. We’re not going to give him another one now, for Wall Street.
Let Democrats tell the President: No Blank Check and no Bailout. Unless….Unless there’s some real relief included for working Americans…And unless there are some tough new rules for Wall Street.
For starters:
* No CEO of a company we bail out should be able to make more than the President of the United States.
* No golden parachutes for executives of Lehman Brothers, Freddie, Fannie, Merrill-Lynch, or AIG.
* Homeowners about to lose their homes should get their mortgages bought down to a level they can afford.
* There must be new limits on how much interest banks can charge on credit cards.
* And a percentage of bail-out funds should go to states and cities for new construction projects and new jobs.
And that’s just for starters.
If Congress is going to bail anybody out, they must bail out all Americans – not just the crooks on Wall Street.
Forward this email to your friends!

I don’t agree with everything in the email, but I do believe in activism and awareness.
Now more than ever, we need to explain sound money, free markets, and use this opportunity to awaken and activate as many liberty loving people as possible. Whether the bailout goes through or not, this is a time when millions of ambivalent citizens around the world are focused on fiscal and monetary policy. This is a time when we can shine.
