Wall Street Bankers are laughing at us and relying on our apathy and ignorance but people like Matt Taibbi have been working very hard and trying to inform us and raise us from our collective stupor, eg. - http://www.democracynow.org/2015/5/21/matt_taibbi_worlds_largest_banks_admit and so it is up to us to learn from history and to realise what's actually possible as very little will be handed to us from above. fyi http://wagingnonviolence.org/feature/how-swedes-and-norwegians-broke-the-power-of-the-1-percent/

Across the Western World, we all bailed out banks in 2008 and socialised private debts without getting anything at all back and now we are all to Pay Again with a Generation of Austerity - without so much as a peep from our so called ''elected representatives''! Want to deal with Wall Street? a) Remove Debt-Money Creation Powers from Private Banks; b) Introduce a Financial Transaction / ''Tobin''/Robin Hood - Tax; c) Hit The Fkrs Where It Hurts!

With that in mind, see - http://www.commondreams.org/news/2011/10/13/my-advice-occupy-wall-street-protesters-hit-bankers-where-it-hurts?print= and ask why we don't have any of that, 6+ years after Bush?

Maybe TTP's effect on Medicare can focus wandering minds in the US a bit more - http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/30862-trans-pacific-partnership-related-bill-contains-a-medicare-poison-pill Nice Video btw - ''Existential Blues'' indeed! Obviously I can't Twinkle you but you get my drift. Solidarity.

ttp seems like a money game blame the money game when things should be sorted out more directly

ttp sounds like an excuse for abuse

Gosh, and they do hard work for minimum wage while producing things everyone needs. They have never even looked for any advantages for themselves...i.e. FRAUD!
