Isn't it funny how capitalism, meaning, one can fail, only applies to the little guy. In fact, the big boys passed bankruptcy reform a few years ago to make it harder for an individual to discharge their debts.

But, when it comes to the big boys in life, socializing their debt is somehow in the best interest of capitalism. Its obvious with this soon to be government bailout of the world's wealthiest, that the rules of capitalism don't apply to them. The Warren Buffets, Bill Gross', and Jack Welch's in life will never have to worry about failing, the gov't won't allow it because somehow, its better for the little guy if the few wealthies maintain their position at the top of "capitalism." How can any of the rest of us ever hope to rise to the top and share in the wealth, if the Buffets refuse to move out of the way?

So, why not socialize wealth? Any hint at socializing wealth is attacked harshly. Look at how Paulson fought so hard against penalizing worthless CEOs who bankrupted their companies and need tax dollars to bail them out.

The Indians recently clubbed a CEO to death. It seems to be the only answer. Self-defense is always justified.

Old news, nothing to see here, move along.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'B')ut part of the problem here is that the capitalist companies have figured out that the best way to do their job is to privatize profit, but socialize risk.

it's the top 1% that I have a problem with, and that are set to profit from it, like buffet, who ofcourse had an information advantage that comes with the kind of money he has and was out of banking stocks before there even was so much a hint of a problem.

It's that top 1% multimillionairs that they need to tax much more heavily as they profit the most from our current system and infrastructure; they reap all the benefits, the cream of the crop of which we as a society have sown together, while the rest of us are left with very little to nothing to ever enable us to get that far ahead, or even enough time to really contemplate what's wrong with this system.

Surely taxing the rich much more heavily won't make the rest of us rich, but just a little more can make a huge difference to someone who has very little to begin with, especially in the lean times that are ahead of us in which a more social system may indeed mean the difference between life and death.

Bas,

I agree, its the top 1% I have a problem with. I have a problem with the Hank Greenbergs and Jack Welches parading on t.v. trying to scare Americans that this is a necessary for the taxpayer to bail out their failing companies, when its not.

why is it 'class warfare' when the little guy finally starts to see that he has been and is being exploited and used and gets pissed about it, but never is it 'class warfare' when the guys on top do that exploitation and rape of the little guys underneath?
