PETA Shrieks Like Thousand Banshees As Kanjorski Recommends Chopping Of Squid Tentacles

Tyler Durden's picture




Rep Kanjorski is out with a simple recommendation: give the council of regulators the power to unwind any bank deemed too big to fail (of course, if the council is made up of the Federal Reserve subsidiary of Goldman Sachs alone, this is probably a moot point). With Goldman set to spend massive lobbying dollars this and next year, don't expect much traction, and/or enforceability of this action. More relevantly, Kanjorski acknowledges that repealing Glass Steagal and replacing it with the worst bill in history, Gramm-Leach-Bliley, that set us on our course of certain destruction, was a not a "good" idea.

It is time to immediately end Gramm-Leach-Bliley before it is too late.

It sure feels good to say all that, doesn't it Mr. Kanjorski?

But Goldman Sachs wants a tax break, and you'll give it to them.  And they wanted H1N1 vaccine before hospitals, women and children, and you gave it to them.

Just stop with the speeches.  It confuses those of us with ears when you and you colleagues say one thing and do another.

As a former constituent of Paul Kanjorski I know what to expect of him.

For a look at his district I direct interested parties to an on line dictionary of common usage from his district which encompasses the Penna. coal region. Or what pundits refer to as Pennsyltucky. Enjoy all.

BASF's motto is, "We make things better."  Goldman Sachs motto is, "We make everything more expensive for everybody".  Goldman Sachs really needs to broken into insignificant pieces that crows can pick up and make their nests with.

Fish, so true.  Love the GS motto.  I'd only disagree about breaking up GS.  I don't think they need to exist at all.  Remove the BHC designation and their access to the FED discount window and let's see how far they get.

They've gotta run around hurting everybody so they can send the next jesus in to heal all the disease they've spread and be seen as saviors. Then we can all have one purse because stealing actual stuff is too much work without doing it using fake money.

He is correct---Glass-Steagall should never have been repealed and squid tentacles must be chopped. Fascism must go.
