1. I think I'm more sick by JPMorgan Chase.
After taking Tarp money in millions and money from AIG, they are outsourcing 25% of their jobs to India. So uh...the 8 million or so people out of work because, in part due to, their crisis is giving us an extra kick in the gut for good measure.

3. But.....But....They're All PROFITABLE now.

At least according to the "Hopes" and "Assurances" that Citi's Pandit gave in his Miracle Market moving Memo on Monday. And he's a hallmark of honesty and honor , so we can just take his Propaganda at face value, with no need for any tangible evidence or substantiated data to prove his claims, which of course there is none.

Same with Lewis from BAC. "We don't need any more help from the Government. We're all fine now."

Yes, a conveniently "leaked" memo has SAVED the US economy in 72 hours and four "miraculous" days in The Dow.

And how about that Dow?

LOOK AT IT GO!

As far as people reacting violently or demanding accountability because of all this fraud based on nothing, don't be so sure. A lot of people are jumping on the bandwagon and buying all this bullshit at face value, not even bothering to look past the surface of what is nothing more than pure conjecture and Smoke and mirror shenanigans. Even on DU there is this same kind of cheerleading.

It's all about feeling good, feeling optimistic and hopeful, and wanting all of it to be true. No matter if there is absolutely no substance or tangible evidence that would indicate a real kernal of even the BEGINNING of a "recovery", or the source of all the "optimism" and "hope" is nothing more than empty words from the same corrupt, empty heads who helped get us into this mess in the first place.

"We just needed some optimism and some Good news."

I hate to tell you, but far too much of America is still loving the Con, and can't resist getting taken by it again, and again, and again, and again.

4. Most Americans love apparitions.
Appearances.

Images.

Etc.

They wake up every day to bolster apparitions.

Images of themselves to their loved ones, their co-workers, their bosses, etc.

We are a nation of appearances.

And most of our labor is invested in scaffolding them.

Awakening... is simply seeing this... in your life.
