Financial Meltdown

“Hoodwinked: Confessions of an Economic Hit Man” written by John Perkins-Epilogue-02-27-2012

www.presstv.com In this edition of the show we discuss the book; Hoodwinked: An Economic Hit Man Reveals Why the World Financial Markets Imploded, written by John Perkins. The book pulls back the curtain on the real cause of the current global financial meltdown. He shows how we’ve been hoodwinked by the CEOs who run the corporatocracy, those few corporations that control the vast amounts of capital, land, and resources around the globe and the politicians they manipulate. These corporate fat cats, Perkins explains, have sold us all on what he calls predatory capitalism, a misguided form of geopolitics and capitalism that encourages a widespread exploitation of the many to benefit a small number of the already very wealthy. Their arrogance, gluttony, and mismanagement have brought us to this perilous edge. The solution is not a “return to normal.” But there is a way out. As Perkins makes clear, we can create a healthy economy that will encourage businesses to act responsibly, not only in the interests of their shareholders and corporate partners but in the interests of their employees, their customers, the environment, and society at large.

VIEUX CARRÉ CONFIDENTIAL! (series) episode #25 posted! TJ Fisher and Di Harris adventures! Ringside, reversal of fortune! With the tables turned, best friends TJ and Di exhibit the fine art of how to regroup, pick through the pieces, and survive a severe financial-collapse meltdown! With immediate voice-over narration, TJ gives a darkly comedic insider peek into her gilded world gone awry, with Di to the rescue. The rapturously guzzling characters are forced to shift their perceptions of life, with bone-dry humor and uproarious menace and revelry — using wit and façade as a defense mechanism. Playing up her hermetic lovable villainous status, TJ defers to the cunningly merry and risk-taking Di. In their faux real life, together, the two hooligan queens are an outrageous and sublime “feather ruffling” tour-de-force, in any situation of trial and tribulation, and eventual triumph. Teetering on the edge, Di pitches in to teach TJ vacuuming skills, and to also home-dye her blue hair back blonde. With TJ’s dogs stepping in to help out as pitch-hitters, the grit-glamor twosome prove that “gone-bust” fortunes no longer gold still glitter brightly! TJ and Di share an unbreakable bond, forged and strengthened by the good times and bad times. TJ and Di are masterful at portraying self-parody cinematic topics, unplugged and raucous, slip-ups and faux pas boo-boos. The totally improper Southern belle ladies deliver a lively dose of “real life” entertainment. VIEUX CARRÉ CONFIDENTIAL …

I love this store. Mostly because in the midst of the financial meltdown last fall, CCB came within days of permanently closing their doors. The owners held a meeting with the general public (i.e. the very clientele they serve) to flesh out ideas to help keep their doors open. Needless to say, the lights are on and there’s hope for the small book business yet. Hope they never need to close!

Timeline shows Bush, McCain warning Dems of financial and housing crisis; meltdown

The Bush Admin and Senator McCain warned repeatedly about Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac and what thus became the 2008 financial crisis — starting in 2002 (and actually even earlier — in the Clinton and Carter White Houses. Democrats resisted and kept to their party line, extending loans to people who couldn’t afford them — just like you would expect of socialists.
