I reckon its more of the same old same old - the rich keep on getting richer while the poor keep getting handed the short straw - as you have mentioned Trees, why the heck should they get rewarded for mismanagement of common resources by keeping their mansions and yachts at the same time as tent cities are springing up and job losses trebling by the day - unless of course they think its their money and have lost sight of the fact that without a workforce to produce the means of their profits they wouldnt have any counters to be playing with - oops, forgot, they already wasted those ones in their war games - they are currently playing with our childrens inheritances
We need to level the playing field if you ask me and that means we dont bail them out this time and put an end to this shambles of trickledown theory - the biggest rip off of all time - they need to be made accountable, have profit margins capped and establish their own safety nets - the whole thing needs to be simplified, streamlined and reigned in............ its us poor people who pay the price - some guy the other day in an interview didnt even know how many properties he owns, he isnt going to be losing one of em so what does it matter - for those of us who barely scrape to pat the mortgage or rent to keep a roof over our loved ones heads, it matters alright and has gone on long enough - if this is the wheels falling off capitalism them I hope it hurries up and breaks the bloody axle.............
