Plunder: The Crime Of Our Time


 

Follow this link to hear James Harris interview Danny Schechter.

Some phrases I jotted down from the interview:

Jailout not just a bailout

MEGO – My eyes glaze over (does this pertain to Steve’s Politics Blog?)

Massachusetts sued Goldman Sachs for intentionally designing mortgages to fail. Goldman Sachs settled.  They weren’t the only ones doing it.

Needs pressure from the public.

You have to read the reviews of Plunder: Crime Of Our Time posted on its web site.

Or how about this quote from the web site:

“When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men, they create for themselves, in the course of time, a legal system that authorizes it, and a moral code that glorifies it.”
– Political economist Frederic Bastiat, The Law [1850]

Perhaps this is the reason our good jobs are being outsourced. The business of America has become financial crime. We can’t be wasting our time on doing productive stuff. It just doesn’t pay as well. Who said crime doesn’t pay?
