The GOP & Conservative media have a pre-recession mindset about the Financial Terrorists

[themaguffin]

Yes ABC, CBS, FOX, CNN, and the NBC Big Family all enable the GOP policies which enabled the financial terra on our country.

Think about how they act and think about what happened.

They don't want to change a thing and it's more obvious than ever.

2. Elephants In The Room Being Ignored - Monopolization, Executive Comp, Regulation, Rating Agencies

These are the elephants in the room being ignored. How did AIG grow so big in the first place? How is it that rating agencies gave them a AAA rating? Which agencies, if any, were responsible for regulating AIG? How is it that executive compensation that is NOT tied to performance become so common place?

AIG is merely the sympton of a decade long disease. The media tries to portray AIG as "new" news. Its not. The bailout and collapse occurred in September 2008, and the events leading to the collapse took place before then.

Thus, a lot of the "outrage" is really just CYA designed to distract from the root causes for this crisis.

3. Monopolization maybe

executive comp has been talked about in good detail, though maybe not in any deep, investigative way.
