The best paved road ever made that one. A super highway. A veritable Autobahn gold plated and dusted.
I don't think Obama is too stupid and he seems nice. But what does that mean? Does it even mean anything? Does he really think he has the power of the office of President or does he know that he is just sitting there on behalf of others and it is they who pull the strings, his strings? I suppose it is a matter of time will tell.
I do know that bankers are not going to develop a social conscience over night and give back all their ill gotten gains. I know they will try to get more money any way they think they can get away with short of jail or having it confiscated. All corporations are sociopathic. Banks are no different. Maybe worse. Some certainly look like the Hanibal Lecter of the corporate world at the moment.
