Colbert on the Economic Crisis

Submitted by on April 15, 2009 – 12:30 amNo Comment

300px-the_colbert_reportI personally like Colbert better than Stewart. So here is an interesting clip which includes an IMF (International Monetary Fund) economist. He blames the financial elites (which is correct) but he distorts the truth by claiming that oligarchs are the guys that run the big banks like BofA and Citi. This is not exactly true. I agree that a lot of Wall Street should be thrown in jail but they did not create this problem.

Unfortunately, the real criminals at the root of all this run the Central Banks. Our “Federal” Reserve (a private entity) is the ring leader of this banking cartel which includes the IMF. So, if you want someone to blame, start with Alan Greenspan and then move your way through the Federal Reserve and then onto the private London based banks that control the Federal Reserve. Back there somewhere you will find the evil that drives all this garbage and pulls the nobs and levers.

I love the soccer reference…it burns!
