The Obama administration and congress is highly criticized for any reform measures they try to enact on Wall Street - the argument - attacking the corporate elite will hurt the country when they as a result invest their capital in other countries to avoid US oversight. So he's damned if he does and damned if he doesn't. I have been trying to get answers from Palin supporters (the apparent hero of the regular American) on what her position would be if elected on reforming Wall Street. Despite their claim that she is our salvation, not one fan on her site will answer my question. Why? Because she refuses to take a public position. Why? Because taking a public position about Wall Street against Wall Street pretty much guarantees that your election will not be funded. I don't have a problem voting for someone Palin endorses, if they will cleary state during their election campaign exactly what they are going to do the criminals among the corporate elite. But they can't say it and won't say it, because it is political suicide. Even if they do say it - apparently, there is a backroom deal made with Wall Street that once they get into office, they won't really push for the reforms. Wall Street has been electing our government for over a century. When they don't like what the politicians in office are doing, they manipulate the market and cause Americans to suffer. We Americans are quick then to blame the politicians and then we vote against them. Wall Street gets another politiician to replace them and then they manipulate the market and we get to live a little better. I also believe they fund the coffers of organizations and politicians who actively speak out against anyone who while in office tries to do the right thing. So any potential hero of the American people is villified (Hitler anyone?) and we buy it! We rally against the person trying to change the status quo and guess what, we get the same old same old. Do I think Obama is doing all the right things? No. But if he did - he would be impeached (or assassinated?) in an all out Wall Street funded war against his administration. Why did Reagan not rein in the criminals? Why not Nixon? Why not FDR? They can't - we won't let them. What is even more disgusting is that American soldiers die in wars to protect this "democracy" and the thanks we get from Wall Street is that if they are financially hurt in anyway by any regulation, they will sell out the country without a second thought! I am disgusted and I don't see a light. Does anyone have ANY real suggestions on what we can do to fix this mess?
