Checks And Balances= Wall Street Lamp Posts?
It seems that our system is so corrupt that all self-correcting mechamisms like press and legislature are rotten through. Micheal Hudson points out that one Chuck Schumer has been one of the leading cheerleaders against Wall Street but only to disract from the fact that he was deregulator point man #1.

When will we see that moderation in the face of deluge is no dike.

3. As another DU'er points out, this is the reality of living in
A nation where the "Money Party" rules.

Every nation where there is sensible economic policy, a Univeral Single Payer Health Care system, paid-for-by-the state educational programs etc, is a nation wherein there are more than two parties.
