Capitalism is when a person does business honestly gains respect trust and works hard to build his business based on loyalty from his peers

That's not the way things are done now Corruption Making promises and then breaking them Skimming and stealing from the bottom Taking investor money the investor will never ever see again

So you tell me any Differently cause this is how people are dealing everyone is Corrupt and on the Take and No New President can Stop It!!!!

One suggestion is to change the tax laws so's to discourage excessive debt and retained earnings scams.

Block the crazy Big Bubble-driven takeover M&A deals. Cheap money leads to debt-driven takeovers. And then to bad management as CEOs seek immediate profits (for share price today) instead of long-term value.

This is basic Econ 101 stuff. Standard analysis for 50 years.

It's Capitalism on the way up and socialism on the way down. The bailouts (and Too Big To Fail) have created perpetual moral hazard.

Why would the president stop it? Those who profit greatly from the corruption pay for the election campaigns of both parties.

It must be a little side game to see which party takes the prize. Tho this time, a negro was chosen because invading black nations like Libya was on the agenda.

I wonder how many of "those who profit greatly" regret contributing to Obama's campaign.

Sure you are. You want free money from our government because you feel short-changed by society. Most people are inclined to work for their money.

[-] 2 points by shoozTroll (17632) 12 years ago

WallStreet exists on free money.

Remember Fact #2?

[-] 1 points by shoozTroll (17632) 12 years ago

That was an opinion..This is a a fact.

WallStreet exists on free money.

It's a simple concept I know, and it flies in the face of propaganda, but it's true non the less..

[-] -2 points by MikeInOhio (13) 12 years ago

You are correct. Death to the Wall Street capitalist dog!

Didn't your lithium arrive today?

[-] 2 points by shoozTroll (17632) 12 years ago

You're an unreasonable, unthinking man Mike.

I never said any of those things. You assumed them.

I'll say it again, as you can't come close to denying it.

WallStreet exists on free money.
