Mish: Where's The Outrage?

I don't know about you, but I am outraged.

I am outraged and not just about Goldman Sachs, but about a process that allows, even encourages political pandering, by time and time again rewarding leveraged riverboat gamblers and failed institutions and at taxpayer expense.

I am outraged that real people are suffering massively while the influence peddlers have stolen the country for their own personal benefit.

I am outraged at a political system that is totally unresponsive to the American people.

I am outraged by campaign contribution and lobbying processes that allows corporations to buy votes with donations.

I am outraged how legislators ignored the wishes of the people who clearly did not want these bailouts in the first place.

I am outraged that very little of this is in mainstream media. Why is this stuff not on the front page of every newspaper in the country or at least in the editorial pages?

I am outraged that the average US citizen is not aware of any of this, instead depending on CNBC, or "The View" for their interpretation of the world.

I am outraged how special interest groups have exercised their power to monopolize the economy for the benefit of themselves, US citizens be damned.

I am outraged that all these bailout programs are doing nothing to alleviate the massive consumer debt problems. Every program, virtually every program was designed to bailout lending institutions, not consumers.

I am outraged at fees charged by banks receiving bailouts.

I am outraged over government pension plans and government pay scales massively out of line with the private sector.

I am outraged that Congress and this administration thinks the solution to massive budget deficits are still higher budget deficits in excess of a trillion dollars.

I am outraged about indictments. Paulson Admitted Coercion to force a shotgun wedding between Bank of America and Merrill Lynch yet no indictments were handed out. Let the Criminal Indictments Begin: Paulson, Bernanke, Lewis.

I am outraged that US citizens are not concerned enough and not educated enough to demand change.

I am outraged that the two party system has failed. Neither party has delivered meaningful change on budgets, on taxes, on social security, on deficit spending, on the size of government, on military spending, or fighting needless wars.

I am outraged that the Obama Administration promised changed and did not deliver. "Yes We Can" was a lie. The reality is "It's Business As Usual, Only Worse, With Higher Deficits".

I am outraged there is not enough outrage over this.

Where the hell is the outrage?

'I am outraged that the two party system has failed.'

I'm pretty tickled that the two party system has failed. It's about bloody time that outraged people can see that.

My main outrage is that

Submitted by AttilasDaughter on Mon, 10/19/2009 - 19:19.

My main outrage is that there is not more outrage.

The rest is corruption by globalist gamblers etc, paid for media whores,
The NWO is executing.

But the people are soooo many, if only.. *sigh*
We got to have revolution!

More people are being awakened. I think freedom and the Austrian school are actually big winners in all of this, much to their chagrin.

All of this chicanery will culminate into the end of the dollar as we know it and will eventually materialize into the end of the American Experiment. What happens next is up to us. Will we be hoodwinked into accepting a system of absolute tyranny and oppression, the likes of which the world has not witnessed since the raise of the Third Reich? Or will we establish a new republic that promulgates peace, freedom and prosperity for all?

We will have to choose. Soon. Be prepared.

I feel your frustration...

Submitted by blounttruth on Mon, 10/19/2009 - 11:38.

The only difference is I have felt frustrated for many of these things for about 20 years now....

Appears to be allot of rage against Bush, Obama, the machine, corporations..

Where's the justice? I don't believe rage or outrage leads to justice.

I want justice, not outrage.

Where's the justice of 911, war on Itaq?, the bailouts?, Afghanisten, war on drugs,..on and on

Yup. I think the "end"

Submitted by mikem317 on Mon, 10/19/2009 - 19:14.

Yup. I think the "end" started after Lincoln's slaughtering of 600,000 Americans in the War of Northern Aggression. Of course, McKinley, Wilson and FDR set their sites on non-interventionism, peace and liberty too.

The point is, is that it's been going on for awhile. It's not just Clinton, Bush or Obama. This is a paradigm that leads to one thing and one thing only: Total control of everything.

We need truth and justice urgently

Submitted by Hard Work on Mon, 10/19/2009 - 11:04.

I pray for it.

stay focused...

I am with you . . .

Submitted by Freedom Seeker on Mon, 10/19/2009 - 08:03.

I am outraged that the political establishments that control the main stream media has not been ousted by the public for being a clear and present danger and domestic enemy of the United States of America.

The CFR is an enemy of liberty. The Nazi's of our time, plotting our demise.

I pledge allegiance to the Constitution of The United States of America and to The Republic for which it stands. Fifty states FREE AND INDEPENDENT with LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL!

Good question.

Submitted by quiltingsando on Mon, 10/19/2009 - 08:02.

I don't know about you but I feel worn down and the rage I have where do we point it? Who do we turn to? The people who are suppose to look into these matters are part of the problem. Everyone we look to and pay to deal with these problems are part of the problem. Who do we trust? The best we can do is to continue to educate, the more people we get to question things then maybe when the time comes they will not co operate but who knows, all the crap they pollute the air with is probably killing us.

Transform it

Don't give up quilting!

Of all of us, you are so great at turning your rage into creative, beautiful expressions of love. Please don't stop. Don't look for a place to point your rage. Keep transforming it.

:)

You can point your rage

at all the secret society members who are bound by oath to screw you. That's why all the people in decision-making positions seem to function with a singular, unconstitutional, fraudulent mindset. All the corporations and government entities are nothing more than compartmentalized front organizations for the Illumnist banksters.

That Masonic temple in your hometown is the local NWO control node. Find out who in your neighborhood goes to the meetings at the temple and urge the good-hearted ones to quit providing a smoke screen for the evil ones at the top. We need to start calling a spade a spade.

We almost had them booted out of here in the early 1800's, but most Americans are not aware of this fact.

I don't think you are right

Submitted by The Granger on Mon, 10/19/2009 - 08:32.

But, I see communism/corporatism as THE problem, which many of those secret societies were able to keep communism marginalized by doing for their communities what the communist would do for them, only taking away the rights of the people in doing it.

Yes, I'm right

Submitted by ArmorOfChrist777 on Mon, 10/19/2009 - 10:54.

Who do you think invented communism AND corporatism. You need to read John Robison's "Proofs of a Conspiracy" from 1798.

And as far as your contention "secret societies were able to keep communism marginalized by doing for their communities what the communist would do for them", that is backwards Alice-In-Wonderland logic. Open your eyes.
