HELP SAVE THE WORLD — KILL A BANKER
If you watch this segment from Bill Moyers’ show featuring Yves Smith from Naked Capitalism and Matt Taibbi from Rolling Stoneon the criminal behavior perpetrated by America’s banks on the U.S. public and don’t want to go out and shoot one of these motherfucking bankers right in the face then you’re a much better person than I.

I am a much better person than you because I would only torture them. And take a video of their face when they see the instruments approaching so that their victims’ thirst for revenge could be stilled a little. Then I would put them to work in a labour camp set up like a zoo where they could be encouraged by visitors to work harder. I am sure that it is more human than shooting!

I would prefer to send them all to Somalia wearing only thongs, sans shoes or sunblock, to distribute food bought from the proceeds of the sale of their houses.

Sorry Scott, I’m with Andre. You’re being far too nice if you just shoot them in the face. I want to take each and every one of them and remove every asset they own and reduce them to a state of begging, minimum-benefit receiving penury. If these bastards are dead, some of their money may never be found. And they’ll just leave their ill-gotten gains to other other people.
Instead, I want a modern-day hanging, drawing and quartering. I want them taken to public place and in front of baying crowds have their homes, their bank accounts, their jewels, their stocks and shares, their clothes, their cars, their yachts, their credit cards, their savings, their gym memberships, their health insurance, their drugs and every other damn thing that means a thing to them removed.
Then they are given $5 and directions to the nearest food bank (minimum 10 miles away) and a housing project (minimum 15 miles away) that will give them a damp, rat-infested room for the night.
Shooting them in the face, Scott? You’re such a fucking pussy… Short-haired, rare-breed and precious, but still a fucking pussy

I’ve been saying for years that anyone who owns stock is a fool begging to have his money taken from him. At least if you light a match to your cash, you get a moment’s warmth from it; with today’s banksters and Street scum all you get is a spit in the face.

I’m with Dazzer on this one, but I wouldn’t even be generous enough to give them the 5 bucks. I just can’t believe that these people live in a fantasy world of their own creation with absolutely no conscious about what they’re doing to the average individual who works hard for the few possessions that they have in life. And I can’t believe that there’s a government that doesn’t seriously take these individuals to task for their crimes and failures and do something meaningful about it and make them pay. Instead we reward them with even more taxpayer funds. No one on Gods green earth deserves the pay and bonuses that these scumbuckets award themselves. How come we don’t hear about these horrendous fines that are being levied and the actions that they’ve done? Send all the shits to jail instead of fining them. Lock the fuckers up and make them someones bitch. But then some of them would probably enjoy it…

It really is overwhelming how fast we got into this position. I was completely unaware of how bad things were in our our financial services industry before the sub-prime mortgage collapse. Whats the next bubble? student debt? It just reached a trillion dollars only recently. Before citizens united, corporations still gave tons of illegal money to campaigns through proxies. They became more sophisticated and they legalized it. The practices of the mafia are illegal, Wall street becomes more sophisticated and adopts those practices. I’m not against sophistication, its inevitable. As a public we are more sophisticated as well, with the internet. The problem is that the corruption in our current system is always one step ahead, maybe it always was but now its finally noticeable. Will we ever be able to catch up and then keep up? No, things will only get worse from here until a reset button of some kind is pushed allowing the public yet another chance to get things right.

I’m with Dazzer… but only after I impose on our friendly bloghood sniper to lower his sight just a bit… forget the face… think you can manage the nuts, Scott?

As much damage as these criminals have done to the US economy, if you watch and read Taibbi you realise that the heinous crimes committed by these douchebags is one of global proportions. The have literally fucked over the entire world. Therefore, they should be brought before the court at The Hague, and after a fair trial and being duly convicted of crimes against humanity, they should be subjected to the treatment suggested by dazzer in his comments. What a pathetic bunch of sociopaths.

We could adopt their morals “I fired two warning shots…. INTO HIS HEAD” “He ran into my knife. He ran into my knife TEN TIMES”

I am feverishly forwarding this video clip to everyone I know. Can we, The People, make this video go viral? I would hope so. Information is power! and spurs action. I knew this stuff after sifting through enough news, but never saw it stated so well, all in one place. Thanks! Let us be the conscience within the system. The spark that it needs for deep-cutting correction.
