The ordinary citizen must ‘understand’ that it is impossible to make
up the shortfall in social security, but that it is imperative to stuff
untold billions into the banks’ financial hole? We must sombrely accept
that no one imagines any longer that it’s possible to nationalize a
factory hounded by competition, a factory employing thousands of
workers, but that it is obvious to do so for a bank made penniless by
speculation?
"Save the Bankers!" is not such an inspiring slogan. How about "Save the Wall Street Philanthropists"? They have earned our gratitude.
