From those wild-eyed conspiracy theorists at Bloomberg
The idea of secret banking cabals that control the country and global economy are a given among conspiracy theorists who stockpile ammo, bottled water and peanut butter. After this week’s congressional hearing into the bailout of American International Group Inc., you have to wonder if those folks are crazy after all.
Wednesday’s hearing described a secretive group deploying billions of dollars to favored banks, operating with little oversight by the public or elected officials.
We’re talking about the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.

Yet when unelected and unaccountable agencies pick banking winners while trying to end-run Congress, even as taxpayers are forced to lend, spend and guarantee about $8 trillion to prop up the financial system, our collective blood should boil.
If the Obama Administration continues to do nothing about the banksters, they should be forced out of office, impeached, indicted, whatever it takes.
A bunch of thugs are stealing our money. It’s time to knock them out of power and into prison where they belong.
Oh, get real. Who (besides Annette Funicello in “Back to the Beach) hoards peanut butter? Wheat and beans are far more practical!
Well, I’ve been hoarding green coffee beans and maple syrup. The important stuff, right?
Surely tradable on the postapocalyptic economy!
I’ve always wondered about the movie <i?Waterworld… just where did they get all those cigarettes?
