“That’s how capitalism works”!!

Has he been scrolling r/antiwork and r/collapse, signing in at the Bear of Hex, keep a copy of the Communist Manifesto bedside?

Is this just a joke?

On a serious note, if it’s not, how far are the puppets in government prepared to go in what could be a cataclysmic moment of comeuppance for the Economic Terrorists of Wall St?

    I mean, he’s totally the “tough love” kind of guy. But that he added the bit about capitalism just seems…way out of character and surprising.

    Supposedly it was a 4min national address about the #BankCrash. And we know how this bullshit goes. It’s a carefully crafted and parsed public relations statement to appease the masses, ultimately an attempt to restore “confidence.” And he left abruptly without questions. With the whole world is suspense about what these clowns were gonna do in this case, after yet another greedfest debacle gone awry.

    Seemed like he just stopped short of saying things we’d say, like, “these Wall St scams are built of quicksand, with the last sucker holding the empty bag slowly but surely going under. That’s capitalism!”

    I’d just like to personally today take a moment while we sit back and sip drinks watching this shit unfold to acknowledge the efforts of the Occupy movement for refocusing our enmity on the real culprit killers.
