Can We Stop Banksters From Killing Financial Reform?

Why Wall Street Is Pleased by the Focus on Debating Healthcare

By Danny Schechter

August 11, 2009 "Information Clearing House" -- -The thermometer is in the red as the heat of August blends into the steam of the health care fight. These two hot subjects seem to be fogging up TV screens during these dog days as the righteous right take up the tactics of the militant left to create the impression that healthcare reform is a commie plot. For his part, President Obama insists a bill will pass and that “sensible proposals” will prevail.

What is sensible these days?

You can count on that gruesome threesome—Bill, Glenn and Sean—to go ballistic whenever it appears that our government is going to do anything beneficial for the people. There’s always a million reasons why it won’t work, or worse, sink the Republic. Rush Limbaugh alternates between arguing that President Obama is a racist, a communist or a Nazi.

George Orwell would be staggered about how prophetic he had been.

These summer soldiers and sunshine patriots and their teabaggers and the dispatch a mob they’ve incited to yell at members of Congress are strangely silent when it comes to questioning profiteering by healthcare insurers and the banks. It is as if the only enemies are in Washington, not on Wall Street. They are mostly silent about the bank bonuses and pervasive corporate crime.

1. We are recovering but nothing really has changed.

We still don't have financial and banking regulations. We still have our jobs being sucked to banana republics and starving nations. We still get Corporate media, corporate fake outrage, corporate abuse of credit cards and fees. We are ripe for another big dip in the economy.

But now the bank/Wall Street/Insurance firms know for certain they are too big to fail. These immoral, greedy, tycoons would be stupid to let such a perfect opportunity to go to waste.
