"Patriotic Millionaire Robert Johnson, former chief economist of the U.S Senate banking committee, said that the current economic system is not broken [emphasis added], but it is "working on behalf of those who designed it in their favor."

"America is no longer based on markets and capitalism, instead our economy is designed as 'socialism for the rich' – it is designed to ensure that the wealthiest people take all of the gains, while regular Americans cover any losses," he said at a press conference this afternoon in Washington, D.C.

"It's a Las Vegas economy where regular Americans put their money on the table and the richest 1 percent own the house," he said. "And if the 1 percent happen to lose money, the 99 percent bails them out – covers their losses and then stands by watching while the house does it all over again."

Excuse me? That's "not broken"?

So their solution to the government forcing the 99% to bail out the 1% is to....wait for it....give more money to the government.

If these people want to pay more in taxes, all they have to do is fill out this form with their checking acct or credit card info https://www.pay.gov/paygov/forms/formInstance.html?agencyFormId=23779454

Again, how did these morons become millionaires?
 
Nope. It's not broken.

I does what it was designed to do.:sigh: What we really need is a redesign.
 
I see...

cupidity, venality, maybe criminality and even a little sociopathology, but not stupidity. These guys (whoever they are) have engineered the near perfect crime-one in which the victim is wholly complicit and willing to both fund the operation and to be victimized serially. And the electoral logic of the two parties is incapable of breaking away from this. The best the Dems can do is to appoint and re-appoint Tim Geithner(Mr. Wall Street) as Treasury Secretary; the GOP seems hell bent on electing Mitt Romney (more or less in a fit of absent mindedness as anything else) and rest assured that his Treasury Secretary and his Federal Reserve Chief will be all but indistinguishable from the present incumbents except in the nature of, and the audience for, their lip service. Otherwise it will be businessas usual.:hrmph::hrmph::hrmph:
