Dylan Ratigan - The Cost Of Corporate Communism
The concept of communism is rightly reviled in this country for the simple reason that it is blind to human nature, allowing a small group of individuals near-total control, while sticking everyone else with the same crappy systems - and the bill.
America spent countless lives and half a century fighting against this system of government. So why are we standing for it now?

Chris Whalen Annihilates NY Fed Director Kathryn Wylde
Whalen said last week:
- "I'm just appalled. She's not supposed to behave this way. If she wants to be an advocate for the big banks, then she ought to step down."
We covered the outrage HERE.
Here is the most gluttonous paragraph, coming from NY Fed Board member Kathryn Wylde. Characterizing her conversation with Mr. Schneiderman that day as “not unpleasant,” Ms. Wylde said in an interview on Thursday that she had told the attorney general:
- “It is of concern to the industry that instead of trying to facilitate resolving these issues, you seem to be throwing a wrench into it. Wall Street is our Main Street — love ’em or hate ’em. They are important and we have to make sure we are doing everything we can to support them unless they are doing something indefensible."

INSIDE JOB - Dylan Ratigan Interviews Director Charles Ferguson - How Wall Street Took Over Government
By Inisde Job Director Charles Ferguson
Why economists are part of the problem
Both Glenn Hubbard and Laura Tyson have played major roles in American economic policy, and both also, unfortunately, exemplify the disturbing, opaque conflicts of interest that pervade the economics discipline.
Over the last thirty years, academic economics has been penetrated by special interests, particularly financial services, in the same way that America’s political and regulatory systems have been compromised by campaign contributions and the revolving door. In fact, the “revolving door” is now a triangular trip between industry, government, and academia.
