11. As far as I am concerned, the Death Penalty is a Wall St issue.
Edited on Wed Sep-28-11 03:17 PM by truedelphi
As is the current policy of letting the real criminal element occupy High Offices

The people who have stolen are government and our economy away from us should ll be in jail, but aren't.

Too many names to mention, but a handful are these men:

Henry Kissinger (Adviser to current President)
Tim Geithner, Appointee of This Administration, Former Head of NY Federal Reserve, current
Secretary of the Treasury
Dick Cheney, VP of the USA under Bush, retired
Donald Rumsfeld, Secretary of Defense under Bush, retired
Michael Taylor, promoter of famine foods, current head of FDA
Emanuel Rahm, architect of the wording of the legal documents aht brought about NAFTA

As far as your comment that:
"neither is "American Imperialism" and "War" (Yes, I know you'll tell me about the "Military-Industrial Complex", but I think you'd be hard-pressed to sell that explanation to the average voter).

I would respond with the fact that some 70+ percent of all Americans want both wars ended now, so that money can go into local coffers and not the pockets of people like Gates, and his buddies in the defense industry.


Money spent on war when we don't have a working economy is a travesty and it is a travesty that ensures the further tyranny of the Political and Military Elite over the common citizen.
