Ritholtz & Ratigan Examine The Vampire Squid

The vampire squid is Government Goldman.  You are a fish.  "Annie, go get your nuke."

Dylan Ratigan teams up with Barry Ritholtz and in 7 minutes they cover everything from AIG to Goldman to bailouts and back-door bailouts to bank bondholders to 10-year old girls who are paralyzed (no kidding) to "What the frack is Tim Geithner thinking?"

The female reporter is clueless.  Why even bother showing up.

This is a squid-throttling, Sachs-busting, taxpayer-soothing clip .  Watch it, save it, send it.

Yeah, I hate when they put dumb women on TV. But I guess Tavakoli can't make it to every interview, unfortunately.

Didn't see you in Vegas, but I was floating around there, incognito. Did you have fun?

Oh I had a blast! You should've said hi. I was at registration most of the time. I told my friend Corey (who was also at registration) that you might make it ---she's a DailyBail reader as well. We are slowly spreading the word.

I didn't attend much of the C4L conference, but I thought overall Freedomfest talks went well. Some were a little shallow, but others had some good insights. My favorites were Doug Casey and David Friedman, which should concern me I guess, since they're both anarchists. Have I given up libertarianism already? ;)

What about you? Did you enjoy it?

For newcomers (in fact 75% of our visitors every day are NEW...never had their IP recorded on our site even once)...here's what we do:

We cover all stories related to the institutionally dysfunctional, painfully inept and completely counter-productive taxpayer bailout of failed people, ideas, businesses, pensions, municipalities, states and ultimately, we fear, of our federal government.

Tell your friends about our site and what's going on in Washington. Help us spread the word about the immoral transfer of debt from failed, private banks directly onto the backs of your chldren. And to young people directly, seriously wake the f up, and realize that it's mostly your cash that's headed out the door.

Allie...I didn't attend any of the events officially though I was around a bit...I met some old friends out there and we ended up golfing most of the time...I just needed a break from things...
