I wonder why Kalm likes this piece so much.

Skimmed through it. Better (for entertainment value) than Obama's UN speech.

Is this kalm's own blog, or a Mike Taibbi fellow-traveling group?

An extremely successful conk business owner and friend actually posted this on her facebook page. You two are becoming out of touch.

Is there something inaccurate about the statement?

There is stuff in there that I agree with about reckless spending, balancing budgets, and the like. I just don't think "jailing the Bankers" is the panacea for our economic troubles.

It's not...but it would be a great start...if you're against thievery and such.

For every banker you throw in the hoosegow, there has to be a politician. If Blankfein goes, Obama goes. Etc.

I'm totally fine with that. The Obama administration should be investigated for corruption just like the Bush administration should have been.

Yes. The word "and".

Fair enough. I really have nothing against community bankers and credit union-ers like yourself.

Heaven forbid, indeed. Always hate to see decent people take a wrong turn in life.

Sure hope you never have the unfortunate need to borrow money in your life. Would hate to see you have to sleep with the devil.

No worries, I'll be sure to do it through USAA or a local bank. You know, ones that didn't cause the economy to collapse.

Glad you're doing your part by taking a higher interest rate on your loan. Attaboy.

You can get everything cheaper at wally-world, but I gladly pay more to shop locally whenever possible.

Also, my credit is pretty squeaky-clean, especially for a young-un, and USAA's rates are significantly lower than the big boys.

Wanna wager on that? I beat USAA like a drum seven days a week. Maybe you were talking about savings rates.

So you must be a proponent of TBTF, monopolies, and government intervention in markets then...interesting.

Nope. Just like working for them.

Local banks and credit unions are good for some things. Low rates on mortgages isn't one of them.

Hey, I cant blame a guy for making a buck, but I figure you for more of a pro-competition and less tax payer backed and subsidized rate kind of guy...at least politically. That's the main point of the linked rant after all.
