I say we take unemployed people and make them federal judges and assign them to people like case workers so you get immediate hearing. Salary = to unemployment benefit.

this "recovery" is the weakest since the great depression, Truman Nixon Reagan Clinton Bush saw recovery of 3% a year, some quarters 6%
we haven't seen that and we won't while the govt hates oil, profits and the lack of unprecedented benefits

I understand our "national interest" requires there be some banks loaning money.

This has nothing to do with the personal interests of the existing banks or their customers

If all those banks went down the federal government could help replace them fairly quickly. 

I compare it to FEMA.  FEMA does not go in to a town DURING the hurricane to stop shit from blowing down.

FEMA comes in after the storm and rebuilds.

This horrifies the existing banks and they are manipulating the system to pervert national resources to keep them on top.

You see this at JP Morgan for instance.   How can JP Morgan lose $2 billion of its own money trading? A: Why not? If it gets bad the USA is committed to propping them up.

And Bush and Obama allowed the Treasury to do the same for UBS, a Swiss bank, to "preserve the system"

Newsflash:  A bank goes down, the bankers aren't hit with a neuralizer.  They still are there with all their expertise.

No reason we couldn't invite credit unions or foriegn banks to open branches here with federal loans if they hire some other bankers.  No reason. 

And that would be a sounder investment than giving $100 billion to the same outfit that failed and went blooie.

THAT is preserving the "system" not propping up stupid rich people.

well it depends on how hot it is and what you're doing, I think you could lose 64 ozs of water in one day if you're reckless

The beauty of it is...once you are a $100k customer they don't want to throw you out, cause they can report that $100k as an asset to their own creditors

next time they revive the Twilight Zone I'm gonna write an episode about a libertarian libertine who makes millions on gender-based abortion, then uses it to freeze himself for 30 years so he stays young

when he wakes up there are no women left to date and he has 50 sons all old enough to kick his ass

"pain (the country known before as Spain) has no strong industry, just a lot of cheap manpower working for foreign compnies stablished here.  The 'brick' industry was just a temporary boom but no real stuff for the future.
Factories here have mostly obsolete machines bought in Germany or Holland, and when they get broken down we have to call german or dutch technics to make em work again (and shit they are arrogant youngsters being extremely well payed)."

americans will sell  you the best equipment on credit

you just have to do it the American way


WRONG WAY

Spain: I would like to buy a machine.
US: It is $10,000.
Spain:  I have $3000, let me pay you that now and finance the rest.
US: What is this, KMart? Come back when your mama pays your allowance.

RIGHT WAY

Spain: I would like to buy a machine.
US: It is $10,000.
Spain: In that case give me 10. 
US: Excellent that is $100,000.
Spain: Do you have a discount for cash payment?
US: Yes, 5%.
Spain: Good so I that is $95,000.  I will remit funds within 30 days. Do you ship for free?
US: I'm sorry we ask you to pay 10% to ship overseas.
Spain: Oh how sad, the British will ship for nothing!
US: Wow. OK tell you what I will take 5% now and the other 5% added to the sales price.
Spain: I will pay $3000 now, and the balance of $103,000 in 30 days.
US: Muchas garcias, amigo!
