The Democrats Choose the Wall Street Occupies The White House Candidate Hillary!
The Party which claims to be against corporatism and crony capitalism, the party that took to the streets in 2008 to protest the grossly unfair distribution of tax payers money from those that earned it to those that squandered and stole it, has chosen the bag lady of the To Big To Fail Banks as their candidate! It would be bad enough to be in the pocket of big banks, but these are more appropriately called To Big To Fail Criminal Enterprises. Her cronies, the likes of Lyod Blankfein and Jamie Dimon, run organized criminal mobs::
Goldman Sachs Agrees to Pay More than $5 Billion in Connection with Its Sale of Residential Mortgage Backed Securities
JPMorgan whistleblower gets $63.9 million in mortgage fraud deal
Citigroup to pay $425 million over attempted interest rate manipulation
So what drives this choice? Why would Democrats who proclaim to be against big crooked business choose some one so obviously part of the established criminal cartel of business and politics? The same thing that drives Hillary, vested self interest. For the big banks and corporations it is their desire for crooked business as usual. Then you have the Teachers and other public employees who are voting their paycheck. Lastly there are those on the receiving end of all the income transfers, they are voting to keep and increase the amount of money that gets transferred from those that earn to those that collect!!
Democrats, the party of self interest at the expense of their neighbors!

Goldman Sachs Agrees to Pay More than $5 Billion in Connection with Its Sale of Residential Mortgage Backed Securities
The Justice Department, along with federal and state partners, announced today a $5.06 billion settlement with Goldman Sachs related to Goldman’s conduct in the packaging, securitization, marketing, sale and issuance of residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) between 2005 and 2007. The resolution announced today requires Goldman to pay $2.385 billion in a civil penalty under the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act (FIRREA) and also requires the bank to provide $1.8 billion in other relief, including relief to underwater homeowners, distressed borrowers and affected communities, in the form of loan forgiveness and financing for affordable housing. Goldman will also pay $875 million to resolve claims by other federal entities and state claims. Investors, including federally-insured financial institutions, suffered billions of dollars in losses from investing in RMBS issued and underwritten by Goldman between 2005 and 2007.
“This resolution holds Goldman Sachs accountable for its serious misconduct in falsely assuring investors that securities it sold were backed by sound mortgages, when it knew that they were full of mortgages that were likely to fail,” said Acting Associate Attorney General Stuart F. Delery. “This $5 billion settlement includes a $1.8 billion commitment to help repair the damage to homeowners and communities that Goldman acknowledges resulted from its conduct, and it makes clear that no institution may inflict this type of harm on investors and the American public without serious consequences.”
Goldman Sachs — the investment bank that was so instrumental in causing the greatest economic collapse since the Great Depression — pays Hillary Clinton$200,000 an hour or more to speak to their executives and investors. (The median income for an American family is $52,259 a year.)
