Defaulting banks - where will it stop?
Peter Lemkin Wrote:In the latest potential financial scandal, the United States is investigating the actions of a group of traders at the world's largest banks. Nicknamed "the cartel," the traders allegedly shared information in online chat rooms in a bid to manipulate the price of foreign currencies. Attorney General Eric Holder told The New York Times, "The manipulation we've seen so far may be just the tip of the iceberg."

What a load of lawyer bollocks. It's always the "tip of the iceberg" - never the iceberg itself that gets convicted and jailed.

As if Holder has never heard of "dark pools".

You'd have to life in saintly isolation not to know that all markets are regularly manipulated by those who are involved in it.
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
Carl Jung - Aion (1951). CW 9, Part II: P.14
