But hey, don't worry- they're gonna fix Wall Street next. While everyone's busy watching The Apprentice (after all, it's important to the POTUS), they'll fix Dodd-Frank and the Volker rule to remove all the regs that were put in to prevent another meltdown. Soon you'll be able to buy a $750,000 home with nothing down and a $600 a week paycheck again. Ain't life grand?
While I don't believe in the sensationalist word choices, he kinda got it right...

While I had'nt seen that commentary- and thanks for putting it up-
he describes my fear.
And, as he says, what are we going to do about it?

According to Olberman, there is nothing that "we" can do about it. He wanted to recommend a revolution, but figured that was not viable because the corporations make the guns and ammo. And the politicians are all bought and paid for by the corporations. So I guess we will have to just suck it up and become serfs for the corporate landlords.

Makes me wonder what will happen to corporate profits if all their customers are serfs.
