Wall Street is dead.

I just heard about this on the BBC, though this is AP copy [emphasis mine]

“The Federal Reserve said Sunday it had granted a request by the country’s last two major investment banks — Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley — to change their status to bank holding companies.”

In under two weeks, Wall Street in NYC has ceased to be the investment banking capital of the world.

Related new, the Public Debt:

09/21/2008 $9,664,631,803,259.07
minus 09/30/2000 $5,674,178,209,886.86

equals $ in the “red” over 8 years.

that’s 3,990,453,593,372.21 divided by 303,824,640 people

equals $13,134.07 each – babies included!!! – and that’s just the –change– over 8 years.

Is it really any wonder that some people want receipts from voting machines?

You know, modern goods, like hair dye. or a VIDEO CAMERA.

how effing dumb.

In Toronto?

This is a story about a very very very smart man.

I’ve seen those guys (not those exact guys) at protests before. Too old and built to be front line anarchists, and never EVER solo.
